lies and torture and...freedoms
"When the CIA destroyed its cache of 92 videos of two other al-Qaida  operatives, Abu Zubaydah and Abd al-Nashiri, being waterboarded in 2005,  officials believed they had wiped away all of the agency's interrogation  footage. But in 2007, a staffer discovered a box tucked under a desk in the  CIA's Counterterrorism Center and pulled out the Binalshibh tapes.  A Justice  Department prosecutor who is already investigating whether destroying the  Zubaydah and al-Nashiri tapes was illegal is now also probing why the Binalshibh  tapes were never disclosed. Twice, the government told a federal judge they did  not exist."
