SETTING UP THE NEXT STRIKE - New York Post

SETTING UP THE NEXT STRIKE
"For the evidence is clear: They work.

The use of such techniques against Khalid Sheik Mohammed not only elicited significant information, it may well also have saved thousands of lives.
As Cheney pointedly noted, those who applied them -- and even those who exceeded their authority -- 'were directly responsible for the fact that for eight years we had no further mass-casualty attacks against the United States.'

Which raises the obvious question: How do those who decry such techniques as immoral propose to break other KSMs and obtain information from them -- by playing tapes of President Obama's 'outreach to the Muslim world' speech?

That may make the ACLU and Capitol Hill Democrats ecstatic.
But it's not likely to stop the next 9/11."
