Smoking Gun

Via "Emptywheel":

I just happened to find Dougie Feith's responses to Questions for the Record the Senate Intelligence Committee asked him in 2003. They wanted to know how his little intelligence shop at DOD--the Policy Counter Terrorism Evaluation Group (PCTEG)--bridged the line between intelligence and policy.

He said his little intelligence shop helped formulate policy on:

• DoD response to the presence in Iraq of the al-Qaida affiliated Ansar al-Islam terrorist group.
• DoD response to the presence in Iraq of al-Qaida operative Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and his CB W network.
• Helping to formulate requirements for the debriefings of al-Qaida fighters detained at Guantanamo and Bagram.

"Helping to formulate requirements for the debriefings of al-Qaida fighters?!?!?!?!"

DEBRIEFINGS OF AL-QAIDA FIGHTERS?!?!?!?!

Errr... doesn't "debriefing" refer to guys on OUR SIDE????
