Obama’s “Disney World,” Where Radical Terrorists’ Dreams Come True: Cheney Says Keeping America Safe Should Be Priority, Not Punishing Terrorist Interrogators

Obama's Disney World... where ruthless, radical terrorists' dreams DO come true
Living the “captured life” as a detained radical terrorist at Club Gitmo has just gotten better. At Obama’s “Disney World,” terrorists’ dreams of release and persecution/prosecution of their American interrogators DO come true. Let’s not forget that murderous terrorists at Guantánamo Bay are fed three square meals a day which includes ordering out for take-out food, have soft warm beds, their daily religious rituals are honored and respected, have quality, free health care (better than most Americans have), and many have pretty sweet laptop computers, paid for by American taxpayers.
For American officials, headed by Department of Justice Eric Holder, to then attack and prosecute those who interrogated them, well, it’s a bloody Fantasyworld of joy for these zealous Muslim murderers. Jihadi celebration!
Thank you, Mr. Obama! This is the best time I’ve had ever! Some more hot cocoa with those little marshmallows, please…
So much for Pres. Obama’s earlier statements that interrogators would not be prosecuted and that we should look forward. Another broken promise, but what’s new?
Dick Cheney To Defend The CIA On Fox News Sunday
From FOX:
Former Vice President Dick Cheney on Friday said the Obama administration should be debriefing CIA interrogators about keeping the country safe rather than trying to punish them for doing their jobs.
In an exclusive interview taped to air this weekend on “FOX News Sunday,” Cheney called the Justice Department probe of interrogators an “outrageous political act” that will do long-term damage to the United States’ capacity to protect the country.
“We had a track record now of eight years of defending the nation against any further mass casualty attacks from al Qaeda. The approach of the Obama administration should be to come to those people who were involved in that policy and say, ‘How did you do it? What were the keys to keeping this country safe over that period of time?’” Cheney said.
“Instead, they’re out there now threatening to disbar the lawyers who gave us the legal opinions — threatening contrary to what the president originally said. They’re going to go out and investigate the CIA personnel who carried out those investigations,” Cheney added.
Last week, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said he was appointing a special prosecutor to look at data obtained about enhanced interrogation techniques to determine whether criminal acts were committed. The data are the same previously reviewed by career prosecutors in the Eastern District of Virginia, where the CIA is headquartered. The data led to one arrest and conviction.
The former vice president for months has demanded the CIA release materials to show the effectiveness of harsh tactics in enabling interrogators to get information used to thwart planned attacks.
This week, the CIA’s inspector general released a declassified report on the use of enhanced interrogation tactics. The report said that CIA agents got valuable information but critics insist the results did not justify the methods.
From Hot Air, WaPo: How CIA interrogation turned KSM into an intelligence asset:
…It’s a canard of EIT opponents that non-coercive interrogation will be more effective, but if you take that bold-faced part seriously, that’s simply not true for the sort of hardcore jihadist freak who populates the upper echelons of Al Qaeda. In fact, it suggests that even if they want to talk, they might be religiously enjoined until a certain amount of pressure is applied. That’s a disturbing complication to the moral dilemma here, which of course doesn’t exist for the absolutists.
