Torture or Technique?
A former CIA interrogator has confirmed that al-Qaeda suspects have been subjected to an interrogation technique known as "water-boarding".

Afghan government and International Security Assist-ance Force (ISAF) troops are trying to wrest control of Musa Qala in southern Afghanistan back from the Taleban. General Dan McNeil is the US Commander of ISAF.
