CIA Director Says If Next President Tells Him To Waterboard, He’ll Quit

CIA Director John Brennan said Wednesday at a Brookings Institution event that if the next president gives him an order to waterboard suspected terrorists, he’ll step down from his position.

Brennan has previously said the agency would refuse to comply with any such order to waterboard terrorists. He clarified Wednesday by saying refusing to waterboard was nothing more than his personal decision and he wouldn’t hold the agency to that stringent of a standard, The Intercept reports.

“If a president were to order, order the agency to carry out waterboarding or something else, it’ll be up to the director of CIA and others within CIA to decide whether or not that, that direction and order is something that they can carry out in good conscience,” Brennan said.

“As long as I’m director of CIA, irrespective of what the president says, I’m not going to be the director of CIA who gives that order,” he added. “They’ll have to find another director.”

Good! Good riddance! Our men and women in uniform were saved because of intel gathered by waterboarding despite the asinine lie that no intel was gathered by the method- if brennan would rather see our troops die than to see an American murdering TERRORIST uncomfortable for a few minutes- then don't let the door hit you in the butt on the way out brennan!

He is an Obama kind of guy. Under Obama terrorist activity on US soil has increased.

Based on his advice, Obama (incorrectly) named ISIS the JV team.  Obama, Hillary and Brennan have gotten more Americans killed.

I might disagree with him but I respect him for his conviction.

He would never get a chance to quit.  I'd fire his ass right off the bat.

Ditto. He is just a political hack there for no other purpose.

"CIA Director Says If Next President Tells Him To Waterboard, He’ll Quit"

Heh.

One of the very first actions the incoming president Trump should take is to fire Brennan and have him escorted off the premesis before he can destroy any documents.

Isn't Brennan reputed to be a convert to islam, anyway?

I do hope Mr. Trump clears ALL the muslims out of government, pronto!

And all the left-leaners who serve at the pleasure of the president, as well!
