Rarely discussed nowadays is the fact that America's political leadership—under the direction of president Obama—decided to, in effect, let bygones be bygones and not pursue investigations into allegations of Bush-era torture.

Tom Usher commented or added the following:
"A former CIA officer accused of revving an electric drill near the head of an imprisoned terror suspect has returned to U.S. intelligence as a contractor, training CIA operatives after leaving the agency, The Associated Press has learned.

"The CIA officer wielded the bitless drill and an unloaded handgun - unauthorized interrogation techniques - to menace suspected USS Cole bombing plotter Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri inside a secret CIA prison in Poland in late 2002 and early 2003, according to several former intelligence officials and a review by the CIA's inspector general."
