CIA Torturers MUST Be Punished

I must have said this several times already, but CIA criminals MUST be punished.

And there is no better example of this principle than what we are now learning about CIA torturers. Nowhere in law or in the US Constitution is torture authorized or excused:

The CIA engaged in brutal torture that brought prisoners to the brink of death, according to a report published over the weekend in the British newspaper, the Telegraph. The methods used far exceed what has been previously acknowledged by the CIA and the Bush and Obama administrations.

“They weren’t just pouring water over their heads or over a cloth,” said an unnamed source who had “first-hand knowledge of the period,” according to the Telegraph. “They were holding them under water until the point of death, with a doctor present to make sure they did not go too far. This was real torture.”

“They got medieval on his ass, and far more so than people realize,” he added, referring to one of the individuals tortured.

And why is Obama ad-Dajjal protecting them? Is it because they have the goods on him (e.g., not natural born, etc.) and are blackmailing him into compliance?

Frankly nothing which comes from CIA or from a President who condones its activities deserves the support of We The People.

NOTHING.
