"In hindsight maybe I should've. But in those positions you see how many more battles you have. You maybe fool yourself. You say how much worse would X, Y, or Z be if I weren't here trying to do it? So torture is a matter of principle as far as I'm concerned. I hope, had I known about it at the time I was serving, I would've had the courage to resign."
Richard Armitage, former Deputy Secretary of State.
The question is did Armitage know and keep silent. Armitage leaked Valerie Plame's CIA status to Bob Woodward. Armitage is a war hero but definitely not an angel.
