The American Psychological Association has now made public the law firm report it commissioned confirming that group's complicity with Pentagon and CIA torture programs, as well as the duplicity and manipulations by top APA leaders to enable and protect this criminal conduct by its members.
But the report itself pulls its punches, even refusing to call torture by its right name, and turning a blind eye to what should have been its central conclusion, that the association should disband, because one group cannot represent those who seek to practice psychology as a healing art and those who would use their knowledge against the interests of those they study.
My take on this at Hatuey's Ashes:"The horror is not the monstrous criminality of the APA's leaders, but the very pedestrian venality that made it possible -- and that also led to the emasculation of the report we have before us."
