In the Crosshairs- Eli Lake exclusives on Obama prisoner operations
Wednesday, January 28, 2009
David Bellavia and I had Eli Lake, National Security Reporter for the Washington Times, on in the second hour today and he discussed several of his exclusive reports. He interviewed Sen. Kit Bond who said Obama's Attorney General pick assured him he would not be conducting witch hunts of Bush officials involved with the CIA interrogations of al Qaeda detainees, and he also talked about his report that President Obama retained the option of holding and interrogating captured bad guys at CIA safe houses around the world even as he closed the so-called CIA "Black sites". We also had author Bob Mrazek on to talk about his book “A Dawn Like Thunder- The true story of Torpedo Squadron 8″
