A top CIA official said the agency had âproduced or made available for reviewâ everything that the 9/11 Commission had requested regarding the interrogation of operatives of Al Qaeda, but the commission didn’t receive the video tapes of interrogations that were still in existence at the time. The CIA says the agency would have handed over the tapes if the commission members had specifically asked for interrogation videos — but, of course, the agency hadn’t told anyone outside the administration that the tapes existed. A judge last week ordered the administration to speak under oath about the destruction of the tapes. (New York Times, AP)
