Framed
Department of Defense interrogators impersonated FBI agents at Gitmo. The DOD memo below shows their intent to let the FBI take the blame for the criminal acts at Guantanamo Bay. This is getting dirtier by the day. Orders had to come from on high for this kind of treachery. Where's the indictments?
Note that they actually use the word "torture" in their own memo.
They knew what they were doing was torture, yet seemed comfortable discussing it in writing. There had to have been orders given. Remember the Gonzales torture memos?
(Via Democratic underground).

The FBI will (be) left holding the bag before the public."
