  • democracynow.org - As President Obama continues to reject a criminal probe of torture in the George W. Bush administration, former Vice President Dick Cheney has said he has no regrets about the torture of foreign prisoners, including innocent people. Speaking to NBC's Meet the Press on Sunday, Cheney said, "I'd do it again in a minute." Cheney's claim highlights a key question: Are top officials above the law - and will the impunity of today lead to more abuses in the future? We discuss the issue of impunity and the history of U.S. torture with Alfred McCoy, professor of history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and author of the books, "A Question of Torture: CIA Interrogation, from the Cold War to the War on Terror," as well as "Torture and Impunity: The U.S. Doctrine of Coercive Interrogation." We are also joined by Steven Reisner, founding member of the Coalition for an Ethical Psychology and psychological ethics adviser to Physicians for Human Rights.

    As Chris Hedges said: "The Gestapo broke bones, while the Stasi broke souls. We're the Stasi, we break souls."

    It is unethical for Psychologists to facilitate torture of any kind and to accept 81 million dollar fees for using behavioral psychology techniques to harm human beings. 81 million dollars is effectively stealing from the taxpayer.

      The targeted individual program is implemented to purposely to make the psych and big Pharma money. All crimes done with plausible deniability mimmic 'mental illness' or 'delusion' or 'schizophrenia'. It's a joke to the elite running this huge crime syndicate. Psychological operations targeting citizens is a way to test neuroweapons, psychotronic weapons, and threatening to send them to a mental ward if they try to seek help. v2K has been around forever. Mental health professionals should be REQUIRED to take military technology 101 and Psy Ops 101 in their first years of college. But it's a hidden covert torture program, and disinformation is purposely put out their on Wikipedia and Psychology Today so the average person has no clue about these weapons. What they especially don't grasp, is that it's being used on citizens without consent, and there is no were to turn to for help. Anyone that wants to help a TI is threatened because they don't want to be targeted and have their lives destroyed too. It's a sick sadistic program with NO checks and balances. We NEED a new Church Committee to investigate the CIA and hold agencies accountable. The military industrial complex and 'classified' clearances are way above the president and cabinet. These elite are OUT OF CONTROL. Most military know that MK Ultra never stopped. They just change it to version 3.0 or whatever. Cointel Pro or whatever. The 'conspiracy theorists' have always been right. Just the term 'conspiracy theory' was created by the CIA. Hmmmmm...wonder why? 🤔 And of course it hides in plain site. Movies like Squid Games, and Kimi are about playing games and being tortured. Kimi is a movie that references gangstalking. It's in your face. While they make 'sexy' movies about the CIA being good guys fighting 'terrorists'. THERE ARE NO TERRORISTS!!!!! That's why they test out their toys and mind control on citrizens. THOUSANDS OF US!!!! How else are they going to play with their toys. All wars are bogus with elite shaking hands under the table.

    US publicly omitted in the UN they psychologically torture their citizens, against the better advisement of United Nations. I’m super Duper trying to feel patriotic right now, but I struggle more and more with it as the days progress

      You're a nationalist. These criminals view America as a corporation - which it is, and it takes research to understand those loopholes and legalese. Tricky stuff if you're not a lawyer and don't know your rights. We're run by a lot of psychopaths that entertain themselves with these games of torture. They WANT us to collect evidence and prove it you know. Except that they don't play fair. They just erase your evidence if you're a target. Total bullies and they brag about it. Order out of chaos is what the elite told me. Read about their ideologies.

    The APA should be LOUDLY denouncing this as unethical.

      They're indoctrinated and uneducated about neuroweapons and psy ops. Some are aware but say 'not my problem.' And some are intimidated or tortured into silence. Calling targets mentally ill or delusional is a JOKE and a form of entertainment to them. I purposely reported my crimes to a psychologist, psychiatrist, and an NP.

      I've heard of "generational mind control" in reading, & also met someone like that. Yes, when it's early on & extensive it can really seem to mess you up a lot more than average.

      I've read that if you're sensitive, psychically gifted, then you may be targeted because they want to map your brain to program their AI systems. They are curious about people who are creative and psychically tuned in. Take it as a compliment and try not to let them break you down. Check out Solaris BlueRaven interviews - she will make you feel better and shed light on their crap technology and the idiots using it for nefarious reasons.

    PsyOps and just plain torture are quite different. Involuntary state commitment via Wisconsin county Sheboygan aka chapter 51 for a 100% service connected veteran like myself being kept in civilian psych wards really seems to never end with the sensory deprivation and worse health care than Vet Affairs in Tomah, WI. I should qualify for impunity! WTF

      They're trying to get you to freak out. IGNORE THEM AS BEST AS YOU CAN AND SHOW NO FEAR. Their idiots. Try to shield yourself and document everything. You can try to move if that helps.

    If the government is psychologically torturing me why don't they have to notify me or tell me why they are torturing me? What are the relevant laws?

    • @Jieisbshiisks
      @Jieisbshiisks ปีที่แล้ว

      There are no laws. Chile is a country that has neurotransmitters-rights laws. We are in the beginning of exposing these programs.

      All govt departments whether of amy country do torture their employees, cant do anything. They use their employees to torture other junior employees so selectively and they do it so tactfully that the victim can't prove it. They destroy their personal lives too. Teaching departments have EVGC's (psychologists) to harass employees of their choice. Real Shame on such authorities!
