men's 978 judgment. the within months the cia wrote out these methods within guantanamo and all its black sites. they call them enhanced interrogation techniques with a turn to contract psychologist who had no experience with our cader, who had no experience with interrogations, and had no experience in the middle east. gemini, went into a cubicle, sat down, and he sat down at the typewriter, and together we rode out the list as techniques that we thought had worked well in the series school. well, i had already been told that the geneva conventions didn't apply to the captured
7:39 am
detainer. who did not, did not apply to the capture detainees by the attorneys at the cia. and so i don't think i thought about geneva convention may became what i often refer to as a modern day equivalent, a snake oil salesman. these 2 psychologist were awarded $183000000.00 contract to run a program of torture. ah, you don't to camera sensory deprivation overland along with the cold, we'll see a program to create her reflect mix of torture techniques. social change has almost entirely taken place in consequence on something else. it does not being controlled. we need to protect society from

7:41 am
a psychologist and a psychiatrist after they were trained in the techniques in the program of the ca abuse. and that's when i could basically stand no, oh and so suddenly i went from just being a psychologist in my office to becoming the face of opposition to the a p. s. position war is a strategic business. our planning and our execution needs to be really well thought out, and it has consequences for a year. i was in conversations with the department of defense and with the white house. and i learned that we had psychiatrist in
7:42 am
psychologists who were advising the interrogation teams dan, i learned that they were not just advising that they were involved by. i was stunned the in the room in it. take it all this time for me to build the picture of what's been involved here and the secrecy that was behind this torture program. oh, i the i
7:43 am
the media a reflection of reality. the in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? tyson lation, whole community you going the right way for you being that somewhere? which direction? what is truth? what is in
7:44 am
a world corrupted. you need to defend the join us in the depths or remain in the shallows, ah, in the vacuum. and then you need to talk to someone who actually was trying to find them. and i got a job when i'm in a position where they need to learn more about what it was, which would be me. but it was,
7:45 am
i got to get how do you think you put up with me going to be as long food i want to tell you the boucher doesn't work for you. is that quote the the me in the punishment wing known as india block, mohammedan was isolated from all other detainees. we call it the freed because it's very cool. i was the was level so, i mean, what is the level?
7:46 am
no food, nothing. total isolation, psychological and physical torture. and i would be in a 247 american because of my activism that i was placid in germany, somewhere to do harm to either confess, little crime or we're going to put you in the torture program. and i said go for it very much. i was really stupid here. the bag that i american said. the logic says that without 2 they wouldn't be $911.00 suddenly mohammedan was the most prisoner in the role of psychologist in the torture program,
7:47 am
astounds me. i saw that we're heading down a road that i knew was going to be disaster in 2002 mark put his neck on the line. one tissue period. the c i a were using torture. i felt like there was an apple and you can see these boulders coming down and take away your arms and you try to stop it. i could not stop what has happened, a blood thirsty torture people who is just great for anyone person to stop with here interrogation rules of engagement go far beyond geneva convention stress positions, sleep management, dietary manipulation. all of these things go far beyond a standard which says there'll be no physical or mental torture, nor any other form. of course, that's the geneva convention. these rules of engagement for interrogation issued by
7:48 am
your department are inconsistent with those. my recollection is that any instructions that have been issued or anything that's been authorized by the department, was checked by the lawyers in your shop, in the department, in the office of the secretary of defense and deemed to be consistent with the jan . absolutely. and you to a secretary, donald rumsfeld was convinced that mohammedan retreated 3 of the 911 hijackers. he personally authorized a 90 day special project status on how to do with her and as consequences. 7, the order to abuse prisoners was unlawful. but to build up to that unlawful order, they need a justification. and so what they did was they sent a colonel to guantanamo to look and try to justify what was going on. and he said, going kind of will be, is america's battle lab. and the moment i heard that evoke memories of nuremberg
7:49 am
evoke memories of what the not nazis were doing experiments, the things they started with was live, the professional regime ends in a mass of guide to diesel. it was very dog except for oblige and then he stops playing the music little bodies in the small all day long. you know, you, i cannot explain to one someone is doing shackle shackleton to the floor and a group of people, 2 women and a guy come in for them on to me.
7:50 am
we know that war has a moral imperative. america after $911.00 was shocked. and i think we had been deeply frightened, and i think that fear was exploited, certainly in the years after that and continued to be exploited. the understanding is you've been more nino of detainees than any other fashion i, you know, i've met a number of them. you know so many probably more than anyone else. can you tell me about that? i can't specifically talk about what i've my meetings with them or what i've learned about these. i've met colleagues shake. mohammad holly been natasha the ramsey. been all she
7:51 am
a mar, absolute. she and her solid, these men were subjected to all these tactics. and there is absolutely no evidence. absolutely not a shred of evidence that, that these tactics used on these men really gave us any intelligence that was important or useful to our country. the we created our to in iraq or torture rock more what we call places today. danish ice on the same chest, a manifestation of torture. with these are programs that we created and were living with those results. you said that you think this is watkins?
7:52 am
this is absolutely work. crimes we knew there were crimes for this. new substitute motion is here to rectify 10 years of deceitful and secret collusion to impede the will of the membership into the ride and other protest. this battle with the a p a is coming to an end here today to reset our moral compass. we had been trying to use to prevent psychologists from being part of national security interrogation. supposed to be acknowledged and we apologize for that. and we changed the stuff to being held.
7:53 am
the 3 of them was released without choice. totally got on a plane and gone back home to england. what would have happened? would i end up in tunnel? would these would these painful with this plentiful period ever have happened? would i be the person i have today? i called on to those questions, but i do often said to myself, why didn't i just get on a plane and go back mohammed, duties confessions were found to be the result of talk. he was released without charge and after 14 years in guantanamo or i was no match for them. they destroyed and they won. they broke in and there is nothing i could say, you know, to save my face or to say, or i one, no, i do not. because those people out of professional doctors who studies just for
7:54 am
this purpose, to destroy the human spirit and make it dependent, be then and make them confess to what ever they want them to cautious. in august 2017, the 2 psychologists who created the cia torture program were about to be put on trial. we were soldiers doing what we were instructed to do. we knew it was lawful . we knew it was a wiggle. we knew it had been vetted and approved. do you think it's possible, as a psychologist that individual was subjected to them except for long term visible or psychological part rejection? do you think it's possible that sleep deprivation taken to the extreme could into severe mental pain or suffering? objection? the c, i a settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. no liability was admitted.
7:55 am
world law and government will intensify the problem of the growing and then them the 2 of the common man. what we much to is to cl won't spread neither friendly nor unfriendly orlando's world in which we must at last take final responsibility for ourselves. i am asking congress to ensure that in the fighting isis and we continue to have all necessary power to detain terrors wherever we chase them down wherever we find them. and in many cases, for them, it will now be quantum. all day
7:56 am
$1000000.00 duction program has been known at guantanamo bay, which could see trouble in population. what makes this issue important? guantanamo has become the calling cry. torture is some sign of american power that allows people to think that america will be great again. the united states right now is one terrorist attacks away from re instituting torture. since the 1950s. we know these techniques have been used in afghanistan, argentina, australia, present the british guy on the british camry, canada, shitty. cuba, great britain, water moment, 100 iran, iraq. israel. if you a morocco,
