I haven't seen anything about the CIA operative....Supposedly they needed Sayid to translate to find the pilot. But when they dropped Sayid off, he spoke very fluently. Did they really need him??? Or was it Dharma training???

i like the dharma training idea. Or something, maybe the CIA was setting him up to be their terrorist guy (as seen later, or earlier, whatever, when his friend shot himself)

Maybe the CIA-dude didn't want any blood on his hands, and therefor let Sayid do the torturing. He already knew it would come to torture, I think. He might have tried it himself, saw it wasn't working, and let Sayid take over.

The operative knew that the CO wouldn't talk to an American, he would rather die. Sayid was the only hope of getting that information.

Since Sayid and his CO assumed that no one else knew their language they thought that they could speak freely. Even though the bearded man wasn't present at the initial interrogation, we have to assume that it was recorded.

Both of you are right, I think.

I thought the US didn't practice torture. Not to say they never torture, just that they wouldn't advertise it. So if Sayid did the torturing, technically no US agent would have broken the rules.
