#Democracy #Now! "What are your thoughts about the letter Attorney General Eric Holder sent to Russia regarding Edward Snowden? Snowden has stated that he fled the United States to avoid political imprisonment and torture. Attorney Michael Ratner agrees Snowden is at risk. “It’s sad that the U.S. has to write such a letter, that it won’t torture people or kill,” he says, however pointing out that “the U.S. doesn’t really think that anything it did under the Bush era was torture, with the exception possibly of waterboarding ... so that means Snowden can be subjected to every enhanced interrogation technique." Ratner adds, “It doesn’t say anything in the letter that we won’t put him into some underground cell and keep him there the rest of his life.” "
