CIA interrogation methods violated international law

Red Cross Described ‘Torture’ At CIA Jails

The International Committee of the Red Cross concluded in a secret report that the Bush administration’s treatment of al-Qaeda captives “constituted torture,” a finding that strongly implied that CIA interrogation methods violated international law, according to newly published excerpts from the long-concealed 2007 document.

The report, an account alleging physical and psychological brutality inside CIA “black site” prisons, also states that some U.S. practices amounted to “cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment.” Such maltreatment of detainees is expressly prohibited by the Geneva Conventions.

    I think if someone have been pretended become a police, feel as international police, will do anything method. No matter those are againts international laws or human right, because they feel just created all of them, and they just could play double standard to do them.
