Apropos of this post about Lawrence Wilkerson‘s charge that the torture apparatus built by the Bush administration was concerned with manufacturing an al-Qaeda/Saddam Hussein link as a pretext for invading Iraq, look what HuffPost’s Sam Stein pulls out of the memory hole.

Khalid Shaikh Mohammed was waterboarded 183 times in March 2003.
