In order to diminish "torture got bin Laden" speculation, Ackerman proposes that "after the actionable intelligence is drained from the bin Laden documents, it would be useful to reconvene the 9/11 Commission and have them review the ten-year hunt for bin Laden":
The tale of the bin Laden hunt — and the lessons to learn from it — is the logical final chapter of the commission's 2004 report. And the gravitas of the 9/11 Commission, delivered through a public report, would create the closest thing possible to a narrative that can stand proudly before history.
Marcy Wheeler enthusiastically agrees. Me too. The best way to counter lies is by a thorough independent investigation. Same goes for the alleged Gitmo suicides.
