Brennan: Exaggeration, Misrepresentation Harmful to Continuing Our Intelligence Cooperation

Thursday, in addressing the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on CIA detention and interrogation, agency director John Brennan said, “I think we see in the international press right now there is a lot of scrutiny being paid to being paid to what different partners did during that period of time, and I think there’s a lot of hyperbole that is now fueling the discussion, the debate, and also then is harmful to continuing our intelligence cooperation because there is a lot of exaggeration, misrepresentation of the facts, and, therefore, I think certain agendas are being pursued, and so I certainly wish that this would not be happening.”
