\"\"Vice President Joe Biden struck back at Dick Cheney this week, stating that the former vice president is "factually and substantively wrong" regarding his criticism of the Obama administration’s handling of the war against al-Qaida. <\/p>\n

Earlier, in an interview with ABC’s This Week<\/i>, Cheney blasted the president’s approach to national security, including his decision to try 9\/11 suspects in civilian rather than military courts. <\/p>\n

In an interview with NBC’s Meet the Press<\/i>, Biden said that the former vice president is ignoring the facts and is either "misinformed or misinforming."<\/p>\n

"I don’t know where Dick Cheney has been," said Biden. "Look, it’s one thing again to criticize. It’s another thing to sort of rewrite history."<\/p>\n

Cheney also lashed out at Biden personally, criticizing the former Delaware senator for publicly stating that the U.S. is unlikely to face another attack similar to 9\/11 due to the current administration’s approach to terrorism. <\/p>\n

"You don’t want the vice president of the U.S. running around saying, ‘Oh, it’s not likely to happen,’" said Cheney. <\/p>\n

The former vice president also strongly defended waterboarding, the controversial interrogation technique used against terrorist suspects during the Bush administration, but officially banned by President Obama.
