The United States government waterboarded Khalid Shaikh Mohammed 183 times. They waterboarded Abu Zubaydah 83 times.
There are plenty of ways, many idiotic, to dance around the torture issue and few interest me. (The least interesting may be whether the US "tortured" or simply used "enhanced interrogation techniques.") What I keep returning to is how counterproductive this is in terms of American interests. For all the good it does to see and hear someone like Barack Hussein Obama at the helm, these stories more than mitigigate the positives by promoting extremism and anti-Americanism, both abroad and domestically.
