How about the political officials that have since admitted they knew waterboarding was a form of torture (or as they spin it "a harsh interrogation technique), yet still authorized the use of it?
Rice, Cheney, and Rumsfeld all knew it.
I do agree that no military or CIA personnel should be held liable, and this position is supported by Obama.
