mr haden has another take on this. he was the director of the c.i.a. during a period of time when torture was being used. there's a personal conflict there being involved. >> the last question on the political nation on the report that haden commented on. do you think it would have come out once the republicans took over the senate. it's now or never. there are still a number of republican leaders that would have wanted to release it, i don't think they would have had the votes needed to get a release. it had to happen, else the american republic, the world wouldn't have seen what happened. thank you for your time. thank you >>> let's move on to other news, and a frenchman kidnapped inmli three years ago arrived home. serge is the last french hostage to be released, and is seen greeted by french president francis hollande. earlier he was welcomed by the president of niger. it's not clear if a ransom was paid. local media say several rebel fighters have been freed. >> zimbabwean president robert mugabe called a meeting to replace the deputy he sacked. f

director michael haden, who called the report a one-sided prosecutorial brief against the men and women of c.i.a. it's a trial and verdict rendered in absentia: it strikes me with everywhere speaking out on this, and many have a different opinion that it's difficult for the american people to figure out what is true and what is not. >> i don't think it's difficult at all. what the germ had to say was self-serving. just as general bush said yesterday is self-serving. they are trying to put it off on c.i.a. officers. when, in fact, it was a failure of leadership. these guys acted on instructions from above. including chief vt, chief of staff, the c.i.a. council, and c.i.a. directors up to and including mike. they are the ones that should bear the brunt of responsibility for a failure in upholding their oath to defend the constitution of united states. >> good to see you. thank you very much. >> thank you very much. good to see you. >> the c.i.a. and the nation's top law makesers are speaking about the report today as well. in a statement c.i.a. john brepan defended the interrogation tack

general haden had more to say about that let's listen. >> we thought we were doing the nation well. having lived in the period and looking bag on it now, we thought it was about the nation's will and in all these activities the president authorised them. the congress was briefed and we carried them out. the programme ran until december 2007. i was one of the people that had to be tested for anthrax exposure. should the programme have been stopped once the panic was over and we learnt a lot about al qaeda, and made progress in the fight against them. >> you have to take the issues one at a time. one of the so-called interrogation thords is that an individual was pushed. the door was designed so it would break. he was thrown against the door. it is designed to break. how is that something that under no circumstances on moral grounds could be considered. it does not strike me as anything other than a trick. i think so many people have latched on to the whole idea of torture, and used the word without having it - have any content. thinking that that wins the argument for them. it is com

a chance former director michael haden denied. >> if everywhere on the planet used c.i.a. as the model, the treatment of detainees on earth would improve. >> world leaders disagreed. the president of afghanistan called for an investigation after the report said there was evidence the c.i.a. used water boarding at in the prison in afghanistan. >> translation: this is really painful. the report indicates that some of our country men who were tortured were totally incident. >> the former president of poland who allowed a secret site said this would hurt in the future. >> translation: the americans by publishing the report in large part lose their ability. every country will wonder to what extent it can be trusted that some operations sometimes on the verge of illegality, but crucial for security would be possible to implement. >> other reaction focused on the issue of human rights. from rain - torture is shameful. china - the u.s. should clean up its own backyard first. russia - a further stain on the u.s. legislation on site. no one was involved. >> there was a career federa
