HEADS UP | Dana Priest is taking questions today on the WaPO website:
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/discussion/2006/09/21/DI2006092101234.html

Here is my question/comment:
"If those individuals detained at the secret CIA prisons were tortured (by international standards), how long do you think it will be until the Red Cross report on their detainment is leaked?

It is my understanding that the ICRC will give their findings from the interviews they are now conducting with the prisoners to our government, and that officially their report will not be published. However, I am willing to bet that people who have devoted their lives to the ICRC will find it difficult to keep their findings secret (should they be gruesome in nature) and that someone is bound to leak their report."

1. You don't get to speak with a Pulitzer prize winning journalist...
everyday. Imagine all that this woman has gone through. First it looked like her story was bunk when the EU couldn't find the prisons, but then the President of all people confirmed she was right. Ironic isn't it?
