カール・レヴィン上院議員（民主党）はこの４月に、「偽の自供を手に入れるために米国政府はグアンタナモ囚人の拷問を命じた」と明言しています。

Senator: Government Used Communist Torture Techniques Aimed at Extracting FALSE Confessions
それを命じたのはチェイニーとラムズフェルドであり、それはひとえにサダム･フセインとアルカイダの協力関係、つまり「９１１攻撃はフセインの陰謀である」というすばらしい陰謀論を用いてイラク開戦を合理化するためです。その詳しいことは次にあげる記事に書かれています。

Report: Abusive tactics used to seek Iraq-al Qaida link
これによると、
２００９年に公開された法務省の記録で、「アルカイダのテロリスト」アブ・ズバイダーは２００２年の８月に少なくとも８３回の、またカリッド・シェイク・ムハメッドは２００３年の５月に少なくとも１８３回の水責め拷問を受けたことが明らかになった。その「自供」に基づいて、チェイニーは「９・１１の何ヶ月か前にチェコ共和国の首都プラハで、イラクの情報機関幹部が９・１１乗っ取り犯リーダーであるモハメド・アタと会合を開いた」と主張した。しかしＦＢＩもＣＩＡもそのような会合が行われた根拠を何一つ発見できなかった。
ということです。以下にその記事の一部をお見せします。
【前略】
Former senior U.S. intelligence official familiar with the interrogation issue said that Cheney and former Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld demanded that the interrogators find evidence of al Qaida-Iraq collaboration...
For most of 2002 and into 2003, Cheney and Rumsfeld, especially, were also demanding proof of the links between al Qaida and Iraq that (former Iraqi exile leader Ahmed) Chalabi and others had told them were there."
It was during this period that CIA interrogators waterboarded two alleged top al Qaida detainees repeatedly ― Abu Zubaydah at least 83 times in August 2002 and Khalid Sheik Muhammed 183 times in March 2003 ― according to a newly released Justice Department document...
When people kept coming up empty, they were told by Cheney's and Rumsfeld's people to push harder," he continued."Cheney's and Rumsfeld's people were told repeatedly, by CIA . . . and by others, that there wasn't any reliable intelligence that pointed to operational ties between bin Laden and Saddam . . .
A former U.S. Army psychiatrist, Maj. Charles Burney, told Army investigators in 2006 that interrogators at the Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detention facility were under "pressure" to produce evidence of ties between al Qaida and Iraq.
"While we were there a large part of the time we were focused on trying to establish a link between al Qaida and Iraq and we were not successful in establishing a link between al Qaida and Iraq," Burney told staff of the Army Inspector General. "The more frustrated people got in not being able to establish that link . . . there was more and more pressure to resort to measures that might produce more immediate results."
"I think it's obvious that the administration was scrambling then to try to find a connection, a link (between al Qaida and Iraq)," [Senator] Levin said in a conference call with reporters. "They made out links where they didn't exist."
Levin recalled Cheney's assertions that a senior Iraqi intelligence officer had met Mohammad Atta, the leader of the 9/11 hijackers, in the Czech Republic capital of Prague just months before the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.
The FBI and CIA found that no such meeting occurred.
