Pelosi, though, denies having been briefed about the torture.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Well, it turns out that Bob Graham was also supposed to have been briefed on these topics, and the CIA forwarded to him the dates of the meetings he supposedly attended. But the CIA records were inaccurate, according to his own personal records. Such was the respect for Graham&#8217;s notebooks, that this line of attack was closed within 48 hours.<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/ernestackermann\/CIA\">CIA<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/ernestackermann\/torture\">torture<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/ernestackermann\/graham\">graham<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/ernestackermann\/pelosi\">pelosi<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Bombs &#8211; Air Strike Tracker The Air Strike Tracker chronicles every reported U.S. air strike that has affected civilians since September 11, 2001.
