LIZ CHENEY TELLS NORAH O'DONNELL THAT NAVY SEALS TRAINING IS SAME TORTURE METHODS USED ON DETAINEES AT GITMO (MSNBC VIDEO)



Liz Cheney,daughter of former Vice President Dick Cheney, told Norah O'Donnell of MSNBC that U.S. Navy Seals go through the same kind of tourture training that was been done to the detainees at GITMO who were subjected to torture.

Cheney is totally wrong. Nobody in the U.S. Navy Seals goes through training that is equal to torture described in the recent Senate Intelligence Committee report.

In fact, nobody in the military goes through any kind of training that is the equivalent of the torture used on detainees.

I went through eight weeks of infantry training and eight weeks of combat engineer training in the U.S. Army and we never were subjected to ANYTHING that would come close to torture.
