WikiLeaks Publishes CIA Torture And Secret Pentagon Prison Manuals

The whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks is releasing over 100 classified documents detailing US procedures for running CIA torture black sites.

Over a 100 classified documents are set to be released detailing the procedures used to detain and torture people kidnapped illegally by the CIA and its satellite organizations as part of the so-called “extraordinary rendition program” by the whistleblowing website WikiLeaks.

The documents are set to be released incrementally and supposedly detain the day-to-day operations of torture detainees at secret CIA black sites located across the world.

The integrity of the documents must be called into question here as past information on the CIA torture program contradicts the narrative being told in these documents.

This could very well be an authorized leak of classified documents meant to downplay and cover up the actual horrors CIA torture victims are being subject to.

RT is reporting that documents reveal that violence against prisoners is prohibited and WikiLeaks Assange is apparently framing the documents as showing how the use of psychological torture has created a secret world where human rights don’t exist.

However, I don’t by this bullshit for a single moment because as I have reported on numerous occasions former detainees as reported they have witnessed and have been personally subjected to a wide range of harsh physical torture.

Their allegations span the gamut from torture victims being gunned down and kidnapped in public, being sexually assaulted, to electroshock torture and people being beaten to death and even people being chained to a cold floor until they freeze to death.

While one could argue that such claims would be dismissed as hearsay in a court of law a blatant contradiction to the narrative being pushed by the current WikiLeaks dump comes directly from the United States government who previously released to congress torture manuals.

Those manuals, again watered down, detailed the use of violent “enhanced interrogation” techniques such as the use of using open-fist backhand slaps to the cheeks of prisoners during interrogation.

Furthermore, the recent 2 1/2 year prison sentence given to a former CIA agent for blowing the whistle on the use of  the controlled drowning torture technique provides further evidence that the new declassified documents claims that the use of physical violence is prohibited is false.

In any case, here’s RT reporting on what is expected to be revealed in documents as they are slowly released to the public.

RT – Whistleblowing website WikiLeaks is releasing over 100 classified documents detailing US Department of Defense procedures for running Guantanamo Bay, Abu Ghraib, Camp Bucca and other infamous prisons where terror suspects are detained.

The directives and manuals, which for more than a decade directed the US military’s policy for treatment of its detainees, will be released chronologically over the next month, WikiLeaks said in a statement.

The first batch of the documents released is the 2002 Camp Delta – Guantanamo Bay prison – Standing Operating Procedure manuals.

“This document is of significant historical importance. Guantanamo Bay has become the symbol for systematized human rights abuse in the West with good reason,” WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said.

Several of the documents slated for publishing “can only be described as ’policies of unaccountability,’” WikiLeaks said in its press release.

One document such document that has been previewed but not yet published is the ’Policy on Assigning Detainee Internment Serial Numbers’. Wikileaks claims it is a manual on how to “disappear” sensitive prisoners “by systematically holding off from assigning a prisoner record numbers”.

Another apparently contains the notorious instructions to “purge” interrogations tapes, which became notorious following the Abu Ghraib torture scandals in the mid 2000s. WikiLeaks called on NGOs, activists and the general public to thoroughly read the documents to gain a better understanding of the evolution of the Pentagon’s post-9/11 attitude towards prisoners.
