Enver Masud: 9/11, Waterboarding, a Confession and the Iraq War
from: William Hughes
Enver Masud was one of the speakers at a “Demand Accountability for Torture” rally, on June 25, 2009, in John Marshall Park, in Washington, D.C. He questioned how Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who was “waterboarded 183 times” by the CIA, and then confessed to being the “mastermind of 9/11,” can get a “fair trial” in this country. Mr. Masud connected the dots between 9/11, the waterboarding of a detainee, a so-called “confession,” and the Iraq War. Mr. Masud is the founder and CEO of “The Wisdom Fund” and the author of “The War on Islam.” See, http://twf.org/ For more on waterboarding, go to:
