Although the work of the Detainee Inquiry was brought to a conclusion it was agreed that the Inquiry should provide the Government with a report on its preparatory work to date, highlighting particular themes or issues which might be the subject of further examination. The Inquiry's terms of reference required an examination of whether the UK Government, and its Security and Intelligence Agencies, were involved in, or aware of, improper treatment of detainees. It followed four themes: Interrogation and treatment issues, Rendition, Training and guidance, Policy and communications. Based on these themes, the Inquiry has identified 27 issues which it believes might be the subject of further examination, together with a series of questions that it would have wished to investigate in relation to each issue. This Report is an interim document. It is intended to help Government in its preparation for any new Inquiry, including in relation to the terms of reference and protocols it may wish to develop. The Report may also serve to identify areas where action would be appropriate now, without awaiting a further Inquiry
The study edition of book the Los Angeles Times called, "The most extensive review of U.S. intelligence-gathering tactics in generations." This is the complete Executive Summary of the Senate Intelligence Committee's investigation into the CIA's interrogation and detention programs -- a.k.a., The Torture Report. Based on over six million pages of secret CIA documents, the report details a covert program of secret prisons, prisoner deaths, interrogation practices, and cooperation with other foreign and domestic agencies, as well as the CIA's efforts to hide the details of the program from the White House, the Department of Justice, the Congress, and the American people. Over five years in the making, it is presented here exactly as redacted and released by the United States government on December 9, 2014, with an introduction by Daniel J. Jones, who led the Senate investigation. This special edition includes: • Large, easy-to-read format. • Almost 3,000 notes formatted as footnotes, exactly as they appeared in the original report. This allows readers to see obscured or clarifying details as they read the main text. • An introduction by Senate staffer Daniel J. Jones who led the investigation and wrote the report for the Senate Intelligence Committee, and a forward by the head of that committee, Senator Dianne Feinstein.
The events of October through December 2003 on the night shift of Tier 1 at Abu Ghraib prison were acts of brutality and purposeless sadism. We now know these abuses occurred at the hands of both military police and military intelligence personnel. The pictured abuses, unacceptable - even in wartime, were not part of authorized interrogations nor were they even directed at intelligence targets. They represent deviant behavior and a failure of military leadership and discipline.Released to the public in August 2004, The Schlesinger Report provides a detailed account of how U.S. policy processes at the U.S. Department of Defense directly contributed to abuses carried out by U.S. military personnel during detention and interrogation operations at Abu Ghraib prison. This shocking report makes available - for the first time - an official chronology of the release of horrific abuse photos to the American public as well as the evolution of interrogation policies and techniques used in Iraq. Includes a comprehensive summary of the psychological stresses and ethical issues that resulted from the Abu Ghraib fiasco.JAMES R. SCHLESINGER, secretary of defense for Presidents Nixon and Ford and secretary of energy for President Carter, served as the panel's chairman.
Interrogation, Intelligence and Security examines the origins and effects of a group of interrogation techniques known as the ‘five techniques’. Through its in-depth analysis the book reveals how British forces came to use these controversial methods. Focusing on the British colony of Aden (1963–67), the height of ‘the troubles’ in Northern Ireland (1971), and the conflict in Iraq (2003), the book explores the use of hooding to restrict vision, white noise, stress positions, limited sleep and a limited diet. There are clear parallels between these three case studies and the use of controversial interrogation techniques today. Readers will be able to make informed judgements about whether, on the basis of the results of these cases, interrogation techniques that might be described as torture can be justified. This book will be of particular interest to security professionals, academics and members of the public interested in the torture debate, intelligence, the military, counter-insurgency, counter-terrorism, foreign policy and law enforcement.
The Constitution Project's Task Force on Detainee Treatment is an independent, bipartisan, blue-ribbon panel charged with examining the federal government's policies and actions related to the capture, detention and treatment of suspected terrorists during the Clinton, Bush and Obama administrations. The project was undertaken with the belief that it was important to provide an account as authoritative and accurate as possible of how the United States treated, and continues to treat, people held in our custody as the nation mobilized to deal with a global terrorist threat.
