This is Dana's Nov. 1, 2005 article. Most of her sentences end, "...according to current and former U.S. intelligence officials and foreign sources." I would imagine that Ms. McCarthy has been invited tp supply as many proper nouns as she would like. ;-)
But then there are these 2 paragraphs...
"The idea of holding terrorists outside the U.S. legal system was not under consideration before Sept. 11, 2001, not even for Osama bin Laden, according to former government officials. The plan was to bring bin Laden and his top associates into the U.S. justice system for trial or to send them to foreign countries where they would be tried.
"The issue of detaining and interrogating people was never, ever discussed," said a former senior intelligence officer who worked in the CIA's Counterterrorist Center, or CTC, during that period. "It was against the culture and they believed information was best gleaned by other means."
I wonder if little Dickie Clarke has upped his lawyer's retainer in the past few days...
