"We cannot protect the nation, much less win a war, by simply bracing for another attack," Cheney said.

In his 25-minute speech, Cheney did not specify what interrogation techniques were used. He stressed that the methods were not torture.

"It involves tougher customers -- men like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the mastermind of 9/11 -- and it involves tougher interrogation," he said. "The procedures are designed to be safe, to be legal, and they are in full compliance with the nation's laws and treaty obligations."

Cheney credited interrogation methods as well as surveillance efforts with preventing further attacks on the U.S. and often making "all the difference between life and death."

"Because we've been focused, because we haven't let down our guard, we've gone six years without another 9/11," he said.
