12:48 am
sleep management, dietary manipulation. all of these things go far beyond a standard which says there will be no physical or mental torture, nor any other form of coercion that the geneva convention these rules of engagement for interrogation issued by 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 do a secretary of defense, donald rumsfeld was convinced that mohammedan retreated 3 of the 911 hijackers. he personally authorized a 90 day special project, stated them how to do with her and as consequences. 7, the order to abuse prisoners was unlawful. but to build up to that unlawful order,

12:50 am
the floor, and a group of people to women and a guy come and talk to them on to me. the 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 more name tv 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?
12:51 am
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 she a mar belushi 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 on to in iraq or torture
12:52 am
rock more what we call the isis today, die each ice on the same. it's just a manifestation of torture with these are programs that we created and we're living with those results. you said that you think this is watkins who this is absolutely we're crimes. we knew there were crimes for this new since she is here to rectify 10 years of deceitful and secret collusion to impede the will of the membership into 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, to use to prevent psychologists from being part of national security interrogations

12:54 am
they won. they are broken. and there is nothing i could say to save my face or to say, or i won. no, i did not. because those people out of professional doctors who studied just for this purpose, to destroy the human spirit and make dependent be then and make them confess to what ever they want them to cautious them. 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 legal. we knew it had been vetted and approved. do you think it's possible as a psychologist, that an individual who was subjected to them suffered long term visible or
12:55 am
psychological part rejection? do you think it's possible that ask me that probation taken to the extreme could induce severe mental pain or suffering? objection? the c, i a settled out of court for an undisclosed amount. no liability was admitted. world law and government will intensify the problem of the growing island. them the 2 of the common man. what we must is to cl won't spread neither friendly nor unfriendly orlando's world in which we must at last take final responsibility for ourselves to ensure that in the fighting isis. and we continue to have all necessary
