Holder Will Not Prosecute Intelligence Officials in Wake of 'Torture' Report; No Administration Officials Interviewed for Report

BALTIMORE, Maryland December 11, 2014 - One part of the recent article here on the so-called 'torture' report written by Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee was wrong and Credible and Incisive apologizes for same. In the article it was stated that Attorney General Holder was combing the report in advance of filing charges against those found to have violated Federal Law. In fact, Holder has stated that he will not file any charges against Bush Administration officials involved in the intelligence gathering duty. President Obama has stated that he empathizes with those officials and the decisions they made in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks that killed nearly 3,000 Americans.

One valid criticism of the report is that no member of the Bush Administration in charge of intelligence gathering was interviewed for the report. This is abominable inasmuch as the authors had years to conduct such interviews. It almost makes certain the fact that these authors were less interested in the truth than they were in embarassing those who ran intelligence for the USA in the wake of 9/11.
