It is inconceivable that we would torture others and not this guy. Numerous counter-intelligence sources have revealed that he was tortured.

Moreover, it’s established fact that people have been tortured under our custody and when we have sent them to places like Syria and Egypt to have surrogates torture suspects. It is inconceivable that we would torture others and not this guy.

He claimed that KSM wouldn't talk until they threatened him with harming his children. I don't know if that constitutes torture. After all, it wasn't as if such a threat could potentially kill or maim him. I recall seeing an interview with one of KSM’s interrogators.

So when a figure on it makes such stupid statements, it has an impact and it is appropriate to comment on it. Peter is 100% sure that KSM's claim that we tortured him is true but Peter is skeptical of KSM's claims to have done certain killings. Is it possible to give us the same benefit of the doubt. Silly question. “The View” is seen by far, far more people than any political talk show. So when a figure on it makes such stupid statements, it has an impact and it is appropriate to comment on it.

As to whether he has done everything he says he has: I think it is reasonable to be skeptical of any confession given by someone who has been tortured. The Canadian whom we sent to Syria to be tortured confessed to things he never did. Moreover, he could also be exaggerating his own importance or misdeeds. Remember the guy who confessed to killing Jon Benet Ramsey. On the bright side: maybe O.J. found the real killer. I have no doubt that KSM has done many horrific things.

KSM publicly bragged about doing 9/11 long before he was even captured. And yeah, he was fingered by most everyone for killing Danny Pearl. So whats the news here? "Rosie is once again...." Ah, I see! Tell us Mark, what did Anna Nicole think of all this? I dont understand the point behind these “confessions”.

This isn't some poor little mistreated guy picked up on the mistaken assumption he is a terrorist - he is in fact one of the worst terrorists we've had the misfortune to encounter.

Perhaps KSM is just confessing to everything that's ever happened (that for which he is responsible -- such as the murder of Pearl and the 9/11 attacks -- and otherwise) because he knows that liberals will leap to his defense, decry torture, and demand his release so that he may go on to plan even more terror attacks.
