The Washington Post (Nov. 4) reports:
The Bush administration has told a federal judge that terrorism suspects held in secret CIA prisons should not be allowed to reveal details of the "alternative interrogation methods" that their captors used to get them to talk.
The government says in new court filings that those interrogation methods are now among the nation's most sensitive national security secrets and that their release -- even to the detainees' own attorneys -- "could reasonably be expected to cause extremely grave damage." Terrorists could use the information to train in counter-interrogation techniques....
If the American people can be trained not to gag at arguments like this, who knows? Maybe the evildoers can train themselves not to gag while taking a "dunk in the water."
