Rob O'Neil had nothing to do with the interrogation of prisoners. The C.I.A. did so I'll go with the official report from their director.
The testimony of someone not involved in the process just isn't as good a source as the written testimony of the Director of the agency responsible for the actions. I trust neither of the men having never met them.
That's where I think you're wrong. The bigger man carries the burden. Rob can shoot straight. The Director of any agency has to concern himself with the agency's reputation, jobs, alliances, money, etc. I'd have believed a straight-shooter FBI agent over Jim Comey.
I know Rob wasn't a part of the interrogation, but I still think it's right to trust him as a reliable and knowledgeable source. Again, I could be wrong. Maybe he doesn't really know what he's saying because he is out of the loop and just a SEAL, but I assume he's well-schooled on the intracacies of the larger operation, especially after they killed him.
