John Kiriakou says he knew al Qaeda , but did n't know him . Abu Zubayda reportedly said after waterboarding that Allah told him to talk . `` There is a bladder , or a water source , above the head with water pouring down on the mouth , so no water is going into your mouth , but it induces a gag reflex and makes you feel like you 're choking , '' Kiriakou said . Note : Suspect gave up information on al Qaeda , Khalid Sheikh Mohammed . Note : Tapes of Abu Zubayda 's interrogation should not have been destroyed .
