    Of course the CIA lied. It is what they do best. They will continue to lie, and deny torture is permitted under the auspices of any US agency. If you truly believe the CIA had never tortured or would never torture people who did not act in our best interest then you are surely delusional.
    How do you think these United States has maintained its leadership as a world empire? Why do you think the US was greatly feared from 1945 to 1979?
    It wasn't until the Iran hostage crisis that no other group dared act against us. They were too scared to act against the US. It wasn't until President Carter greatly demonstrated indecisiveness and weakness that terrorists began thinking they could successfully attack us.

    No surprise that governments, governmental agencies and all sort of companies lie, it's their day to day, what matters it's not the truth, but what can be proved.

    Lying is the new truth these days...something i have come to hurtfully realize...and the most amazing fact about it, is that nearly everyone seems pretty much alright with it, so if the CIA is lying...who can be trusted?!...:(...i bet no one!
