The reality is completely different. The interrogation and detention regime implemented by the U.S. resulted in the deaths of over 100 detainees in U.S. custody -- at least.

Mother Jones: Defining Torture Down: "Do they know this is torture? Of course they do. Glenn Greenwald is right when he says the excerpt below is probably all you need to read.
