harsche interrogation

ausgezeichneter artikel in der newyorktimes über die veröffentlichten CIA protokolle - LINK
"[The top officials]...did not know that some veteran trainers from the SERE program itself had warned in internal memorandums that, morality aside, the methods were ineffective. Nor were most of the officials aware that the former military psychologist who played a central role in persuading C.I.A. officials to use the harsh methods had never conducted a real interrogation, or that the Justice Department lawyer most responsible for declaring the methods legal had idiosyncratic ideas that even the Bush Justice Department would later renounce.
The process was “a perfect storm of ignorance and enthusiasm,” a former C.I.A. official said."

aber sogar wenn man es mit gelben legomännchen nachstellt (was einer auf flickr gemacht hat) kommt das beklemmende gefühl nicht weg...
