More data on Khalid Sheik Mohammed

ThinkProgress has this post trying to divine whether Khalid Sheik Mohammed was tortured from the testimony. I'll just resolve that issue.

From an ABCNews piece in Nov. 2005.

According to the sources, CIA officers who subjected themselves to the water boarding technique lasted an average of 14 seconds before caving in. They said al Qaeda's toughest prisoner, Khalid Sheik Mohammed, won the admiration of interrogators when he was able to last between two and two-and-a-half minutes before begging to confess.
