Hitch gets waterboarded

In one of the creepiest videos I’ve seen in some time, Christopher Hitchens gets waterboarded in what looks like a garage in Naperville, Illinois. He lasts about 15 seconds. In the post-op interview, some days later, he is visibly shaken, and says he has begun having nightmares. Kudos to Hitch - more pundits should try out the things they gab about. Politicians too.

NB - I’m presently reading Legacy of Ashes: The History of the CIA. The brutality and incompetence of the whole thing is at once embarrassing and scary, as well as (in post-9/11 retrospect) not at all surprising.

  1. Why Naperville?

  2. It’s the first place that pops to mind when I see a garage nicer than some people’s houses.
