NBC's Robert Windrem reports for The Daily Beast:
*Two U.S. intelligence officers confirm that Vice President Cheney’s office suggested waterboarding an Iraqi prisoner, a former intelligence official for Saddam Hussein, who was suspected to have knowledge of a Saddam-al Qaeda connection.
*The former chief of the Iraq Survey Group, Charles Duelfer, in charge of interrogations, tells The Daily Beast that he considered the request reprehensible.
*Much of the information in the report of the 9/11 Commission was provided through more than 30 sessions of torture of detainees.
As I wrote yesterday, torture is rapidly becoming just the tip of the iceberg in a broader criminal conspiracy to go to war in Iraq.
UPDATE: Zachary Roth at TPM has some additional details from Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff for Colin Powell.
