and the damon george bush announced there were black sites and they were being closed i could never believe that this day would come because these things were so secret the problem in the united states was that since these detainees were considered to be alleged terrorists there was very little sympathy for them and rightfully i understand that it was more difficult to explain to people however that there were other detainees who were not implicated in attacks who had been mistakenly arrested because of false identity or whatever and they also had been tortured. thanks to some very high up contacts marty discovered why certain european countries had collaborated with the united states. is that you needed the t.v.

10:38 pm
existence of that site but to be harnessed not many people believed in this at that time and i think what was important is that after both 1st publications there were some investigative activities undertaken this personally by dick marty who was at that time to set out or collaborate kink within the council of europe are all meant to reassemble. basically 2 important places and one is from on a report that was a report. it was not working. so you know her board at that time right now it is just used for commercial purposes. the 2nd person is static equal to 0 and he is the working cook and we have the school of pollution go to. the school there. it is in the forest lol inhibitor the original. and allegedly are according to that are

10:41 pm
intense cold. as well as surveillance cameras masked guards constantly monitored the cells banging on the doors and telling the detainees to raise their arms to show they were still alive. many detainees were held in isolation for 120 days during which time they were not permitted any contact at all with others. the prisoners were forced to listen to a constant buzzing sometimes broken by cries. shifting alliances to washington's i don't really think policy assault against russia and china has already altered the world order what remains to be seen is how must go invasion together to confront the us also will america ever enormously

10:46 pm
you're the. one educated. to the. topic and. your kid. i mean. the presumed terrorists were not simply made to disappear. the cia wanted to obtain information from them that could help prevent other terrorist attacks the agents therefore used so-called enhanced interrogation techniques. i had no idea there was a torture program i went back to headquarters about 5 weeks later. and i went to the cafeteria for lunch one day and a senior officer came up to me and said very casually he said hey i'm glad i saw you do you want to be certified in enhanced interrogation techniques i had never heard that term before so i said what do you mean so he explained to me with these
10:47 pm
techniques were and i said that sounds like a torture program and he said no it's not torture we got permission from the president. and i said no no i don't think so let me think about it for an hour or so i went up to the executive floor of the 7th floor of the cia there was a very senior cia officer there that i knew that i worked for in the middle east many years earlier and i asked him his opinion he said forget it it's a torture program so i went downstairs i said i'm not interested in this i said i have a moral and ethical problem with it i think it's a torture program and i don't want to be involved. thanks to some legal documents exchanged between the cia and the u.s. department of justice that came to light. such as the memorandum for john rizzo we now know what the end hunched interrogation techniques involved. attention

10:50 pm
telling us it was working so i thought at the time there were 2 separate questions here number one does it work in that are you collecting good information they were telling us yes they were that was a lie the other question was is it moral or legal or ethical and to me the answer was clearly no it was not moral and legal and ethical but i kept my mouth shut for a long time. and then finally in december of 2007. i just couldn't be silent any more and so finally i i went on a television news show and i said i said 3 things i said the cia was torturing its prisoners they said that torture was official us government policy and i said the policy had been personally approved by the president. following his statements john kiriakou was sentenced to 30 months in prison accused of revealing state secrets he lost his job and his family and now works for radio

comment on timidly can knowing him for. the truth as stated by the marty report itself is gaining ground and nothing can stop it now . the investigation conducted by the former swiss senator is so clearly true that in 2014 a report by the us select senate committee on intelligence headed by senator feinstein confirmed all the findings of the dick martin inquire. mary. jo feinstein's report makes strong accusations against the cia and highlights how the methods used were both cruel and ineffective. history will judge us by our commitment to. govern by law and a willingness to face an ugly truth and say never again. we still don't know how many people were abducted and imprisoned by the cia
