Senate Issues Damning Report On CIA Torture Technique
[IsraelTimes] Senate Sherlocks delivered a damning indictment of CIA practices Tuesday, accusing the spy agency of inflicting pain and suffering on prisoners beyond legal limits and deceiving the nation with stories of life-saving interrogations unsubstantiated by its own records.
Treatment in secret prisons a decade ago was worse than the government told Congress or the public, said the report from the Senate Intelligence Committee, the first official public accounting after years of debate about the CIA?s brutal handling of prisoners.
Five hundred pages were released, representing the executive summary and conclusions of a still-classified 6,700-page full investigation.
