clip - As far back as 2004, the CIA began moving away from capturing and detaining suspected terrorists in favor of killing them via drone strikes. It was a decision spurred in large part by the CIA's own 2004 investigation into the agency's abuse of detainees. A report from the CIA's inspector general had raised the possibility that the CIA's interrogation techniques violated the UN Convention Against Torture, and that individual officers might be liable for criminal prosecution. That torture report from 10 years ago was perhaps the single most important reason for the C.I.A.’s shift from capturing to killing terrorism suspects. http://www.theatlantic.com/international/archive/2014/12/the-us-stopped-torturing-terror-suspectsand-started-droning-them /383590/ _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
