The leftist media shows where it’s sympathy lies:

“Khalid Sheik Mohammed, the alleged mastermind of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, was subjected to the CIA’s harshest interrogation methods while he was held in secret prisons around the world for more than three years, part of an interrogation regimen that the International Committee of the Red Cross has called “tantamount to torture,” according to a New Yorker article to be published on the magazine’s Web site today.

In a 12-page article released yesterday, reporter Jane Mayer analyzes the development of the CIA’s secret interrogation techniques and writes that a confidential ICRC report to the U.S. government details Mohammed’s assertions that he was tortured by the CIA. Unnamed Washington sources told Mayer that Mohammed said he was held naked in his cell, questioned by female interrogators to humiliate him, attached to a dog leash and made to run into walls, and put in painful positions while chained to the floor. Mohammed also said he was “waterboarded” — a simulated drowning — in addition to being held in suffocating heat and painfully cold conditions. Mohammed’s captors also told him shortly after his arrest in March 2003: “We’re not going to kill you. But we’re going to take you to the very brink of your death and back,” the article said.”

“Alledged” my ass. He copped to the 9/11 planning. Not only that he bragged about it. Three-thousand dead and the WAP cares whether or not this animal was forced to talk to a woman?

Perhaps the Wapo editors and writers would like to release this animal, talk him home and let their mothers and sisters babysit him. You know, hug him and squeeze him and call him their own. Better yet, perhaps they would care to see how he - if he were still on the loose - would treat them and their loves ones now if he had the chance?

Maybe they should ask Kevin Cosgrove - if he had the chance to respond.

Better even yet, maybe the writers could just spare the sacrifice of American trees and save paper by sparing us this worthless and useless information.
