Can you supply the source and also the context?

Vaguely and poorly. It sounds like he was adapting a veil of ignorance during his interrogation since at the end he knew he would be executed and felt no regret. That is truly the inner workings of a twisted man who in his own mind thinks he's done a very good job and led a full life. (I'm sure some people will add to my last sentence "just like Bush" and I'll think...wow...that joke is so old and played out.) This vaguely reminds me of Masaharu Homma. Vaguely and poorly.

Someone should tell Dick Cheney, David Addington, and John Yoo. Hell, tell the American people. Torture is not necessary and not effective. Geez.
