At Least One Terrorist Proves It - Waterboarding Can Lead To Good Things!
WASHINGTON (AP) - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, confessed to that attack and a chilling string of other terror plots during a military hearing at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, according to a transcript released Wednesday by the Pentagon.He says he was "tortured" by the CIA. Well boo-mother freaking-hoo! He also had the unmitigated gall to say: "When I said I'm not happy that 3,000 been killed in America, I feel sorry even. I don't like to kill children and the kids..." He deserves an extra dose of electricity to the genitals for that lie.
"I was responsible for the 9/11 operation from A to Z," Mohammed said in a statement read during the session, which was held last Saturday.
The transcripts also refer to a claim by Mohammed that he was tortured by the CIA, although he said he was not under duress at the U.S. naval base at Guantanamo when he confessed to his role in the attacks.
In a section of the statement that was blacked out, he confessed to the beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, The Associated Press has learned. Pearl was abducted in January 2002 in Pakistan while researching a story on Islamic militancy. Mohammed has long been a suspect in the killing.
Using his own words, the extraordinary transcript connects Mohammed to dozens of the worst terror plots attempted or carried out in the last 15 years—and to others that have not occurred. All told, thousands have died in operations he directed.
His words draw al-Qaida closer to plots of the early 1990s than the group has previously been connected to, including the 1993 World Trade Center truck bombing.
We won't make any progress in this war unless the enemy knows we'll do whatever it takes to defend and protect ourselves. Including making the terrorists sorry they ever drew one breath of air.
