More quotes by Robert Baer
I don't trust American intelligence. You look at the torture report from the Senate: People inside the CIA are saying that it doesn't work, and we're getting the information not from torture, but simply from questioning people.
Robert Baer
There is a tendency in any conflict, especially in a democracy, to fight the enemy you can, not the enemy you should.
Robert Baer
Bethlehem was God with us, Calvary was God for us, and Pentecost is God in us.
Robert Baer
I truly believe that if torture had worked and there was a case to be made for it, we would see that on the front pages of the American press.
Robert Baer
If you want prisoners to be tortured, you send them to Syria. If you want someone to disappear – never to see them again – you send them to Egypt.
Robert Baer
Did bin Laden act alone, through his own al-Qaida network, in launching the attacks? About that I'm far more certain and emphatic: no.
Robert Baer
The CIA is an incompetent bureaucracy, generally.
Robert Baer
