RobS, did you read the citation? It says "Mr Cheney implied that the technique - a form of simulated drowning - was used on the alleged September 11 mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, who is being held at Guantánamo Bay."-AmesGyo! 14:27, 13 April 2007 (EDT)
- Yes, but this isn't Wikipedia. Under WP:Verifiability, you can add that kinda garbage despite the fact that the actual radio transcript PROVES it is a false citation from the Guardian, as well as the other link that was removed. RobS 14:35, 13 April 2007 (EDT)

I read it. He says, "And I think the terrorist threat, for example, with respect to our ability to interrogate high value detainees like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, that's been a very important tool that we've had to be able to secure the nation." I'm putting the line back, but with the quote. You'll like it.-AmesGyo! 15:06, 13 April 2007 (EDT)
- I added this - "In a recent interview, Vice President Dick Cheney described waterboarding as a "very important tool" in the interrogation of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, but said that he did not consider it torture.[1]." No doubt it's factual, it's straight from the interview. Cut out the middle man. Take that, BBC!-AmesGyo! 15:09, 13 April 2007 (EDT)
