Go visit Dachau, Herr Bundesanwaltschaft. In contrast to how the US deals with terrorists, it should remind you of what the torture of INNOCENT people is all about, since your country is the master of it.
"This is rich. Germany’s “federal prosecutor”, from the home of the Nazi death camps, has a problem with America’s CIA Director?"

I think it very sad that someone like you would compare a German leader today with someone from over 70 years ago.

I guess, according to you becuae the British went to war with us back in the 1700's we should NOT be fiends with them NOW.

The Japanese leader back in 1941 bombed Pearl Harbor so we should NOT be friends with them today.

It isn't just sad but, SICK!

Waterboarding actually refers to two different interrogation techniques. One involves pumping water directly into the stomach. This would be torture

The other technique — the one more widely used today — involves choking the victim by filling their throat with a steady stream of water — a sort of "slow-motion drowning" that was perfected by Dutch traders in the 17th century. They used it against their British rivals in the East Indies.
Bolding torture.

Default Correction: Trump’s Pick to Head CIA Did Not Oversee Waterboarding of Abu Zubaydah

Yo libsters, did y'all miss the ProPublica retraction yesterday?

ProPublica is the publication that originally accused Gina Haspel of torture. It's the report all the other hysterical stories in the MSM are based on.

It's the report all the thousands of hysterical comments on CD and social media are based on. And ProPublica retracted the story.

From ProPublica -

ProPublica erred when it reported in 2017 that Gina Haspel was in charge of a secret prison in Thailand during the infamous interrogation of an al-Qaida suspect.

Whoops.

That's all right, I'm sure you folks will find something else to get hysterical about today.

Most likely they'll just ignore it. When reality conflicts with ideology around here, reality is always the loser.
