Senate releases CIA torture report

[Michael Barwell]

....sadly, many Americans are rather oblivious to the harm and danger we have been and pose...outside and in....

I grew-up reading about Britains post-colonial wars, Malaya & on the Arabian Peninsula; these were won thru' 'hearts & minds'. The contemporary approach is to not engage 'hearts & minds', but to destroy them, and hence the apparent shitstorm the world's facing. It's not a case that ppl and govts are getting any more sophisticated, au contraire, they're throwing around their weight and pissing masses of ppl off; I gather within a couple of months towards the end of 2003, they'd off'ed more civilians in Iraq than died on 9-11, in the name of, er, well what was that all about? -the war on terror, crime, drugs and squirrels... Boo-yah, mo-fo. It really does seem as tho' there's a cabal of psychopaths running riot atm.

I'm finding a load of similarities on the tv about the torture programs, but I'v not read much as yet - threats to friends, family etc, and predictions of their death and profound illnesses. Some refs I've had too, like Herr Doktor "Grayson".

Not heard anything which resembles electromagnetic torture techniques yet, tho' some of the reports have a certain familiarity - attention grasp, facial hold - as in microwave lasers to the face, sleep dep., insects - some weird sound effect I had very loudly in my head - I was led-on to be thinking it was beatles in my head and later 'told' it was Lorenz waves (?) whatever they are, a windy, whistling, scratching noise, and mock burial - I've had thousands of refs to this.
