from Glenn Greenwald:

The fruits of the President's interrogation policies:

That is what the President and his followers insist we have to do in order to stay "safe" -- abduct people, hold them in secret prisons and torture them. That way, they will confess to crimes they didn't commit, admit that they trained in terrorist camps located in countries they've never been to, tell us about non-existent terrorist plots they invented to satisfy their interrogators, and confirm that detainees whom they don't know and never met are very bad Al Qaeda terrorists -- all so that they won't be tortured any more. And then we'll all be safer.
