We Don't Torture-Egypt Does it For Us

Qaeda-Iraq Link U.S. Cited Is Tied to Coercion Claim The Bush administration based a crucial prewar assertion about ties between Iraq and Al Qaeda on detailed statements made by a prisoner while in Egyptian custody who later said he had fabricated them to escape harsh treatment, according to current and former government officials. The officials said the captive, Ibn al-Shaykh al-Libi, provided his most specific and elaborate accounts about ties between Iraq and Al Qaeda only after he was secretly handed over to Egypt by the United States in January 2002, in a process known as rendition.
We not only commit crimes against humanity when we torture, but the information gained by torture is totally unreliable. Of course, Bush and the administration didn't care if it was reliable or not. In fact, the truth wasn't what they were looking for because the truth would not have allowed them to trick the sheep into going into Iraq.
