FOIA Limited Once Again
It appears unfortunately that the DOD can now exempt torture testimony from FOIA requests. The testimonies that Gitmo inmates gave before the military tribunals is being guarded on the grounds that it protects “intelligence sources and methods” and might aid enemy "propaganda". I, like the ACLU, call BS on that one. The most important eyewitnesses of the US torture program, the torturees themselves, are still being censored by the DOD and the CIA.
