Darius Rejali, the world expert on torture techniques and author of Torture and Democracy, describes the origins of the CIA’s torture techniques as described in the recently leaked ICRC report. Not surprisingly, these techniques have mostly been in long use in the United States. As is implied by Rejali’s article, ending US torture will require much more than closing the CIA’s black sites, for our domestic criminal justice system has been one of the most creative sources for techniques of torture. Online Journal: CIA has 3,000 documents related to torture tapes.
