A técnica controversa da interrogação de waterboarding serviu a uma finalidade “valiosa” e não constitui a tortura, Attorney General anterior John que Ashcroft disse um comitê quinta-feira da casa.

Testifying nas réguas da interrogação de administração de Bush antes do comitê Judiciary da casa, Ashcroft defendeu a técnica ao responder a uma pergunta do representante. Howard Coble, R-Norte Carolina.

“Waterboarding, como se sabe, é uma edição controversa. Você pensa d serviu a uma finalidade benéfica?” o congressista pediu.

“Os relatórios que eu me ouvi, e eu não tenho nenhuma razão descrê-los, indicam que eram muito valiosos,” Ashcroft dito, adicionando que o diretor George Tenet do CIA indicou que o “valor da informação recebida do uso de técnicas realçadas da interrogação - mim não sabem se dizia waterboarding ou não, mas supõem que era por um momento - o valor dessa informação excedeu o valor da informação que foi recebida de todas fontes restantes.”

Waterboarding é uma técnica projetada simular afogar-se. A agência reconheceu usando o em suspeitos do terror. Consideração de alguns críticos ele como a tortura; outros dizem é uma técnica áspera da interrogação, e os proponents dizem que é uma ferramenta útil na guerra no terror.

Ashcroft, que indicou sua oposição para torturar, disse que o departamento da justiça determinou que waterboarding - como definido e descrito pelo CIA - não constitui a tortura.

“Eu acredito um relatório de waterboarding seria sério, mas eu não acredito que definiria a tortura,” Ashcroft dito, respondendo às perguntas do representante. Águas de Maxine, D-Califórnia.

Adicionou, “o departamento de justiça tem em uma base consistente sobre o último half-dozen anos ou assim, repetidamente outra vez em suas avaliações, vindas à conclusão que sob a lei na existência durante meu tempo como o Attorney General, waterboarding não constituiu a tortura.”

As águas pediram Ashcroft se tais técnicas estariam consideradas como “totalmente inaceitáveis e mesmo o criminoso” se fossem usadas em soldados americanos.

“Bem, minha subscrição a estes memorandos, e minha opinião que a lei fornece a base para estes memorandos persistiram mesmo na presença de meu filho que serve a duas excursões do dever no ultramar na área do golfo como um membro de nossas forças armadas,” Ashcroft dito.

Representante. Steve Chabot, R-Ohio, pedido quantas vezes waterboarding tinha sido executado. Ashcroft said that it’s his “understanding it has been done three times” as part of an “interrogation process.” He said he thinks the subjects of the interrogations “would be labeled as high-valued detainees.”

The House of Representatives failed to muster the two-thirds majority it needed this year to override President Bush’s veto of a bill that would have banned certain CIA interrogation techniques, including waterboarding.

The White House applauded the vote, saying an override “would have diminished the intelligence community’s ability to protect our nation.”

The bill was an effort to curtail the CIA’s ability to use harsh interrogation techniques that the military and other law enforcement agencies ban. It would have restricted U.S. interrogators to techniques outlined in the Army Field Manual.

The White House said the restriction “would have eliminated the legal alternative procedures in place in the CIA program to question the world’s most dangerous and violent terrorists.”
