Pyntingar bandarķkjahers og CIA ‘Outmoded, amateurish and unreliable’ skv. sérfręšingum

Pyntingar hafa veriš mikiš ķ umręšunni ķ Bandarķkjunum. Pyntingar og ķll mešferš į föngum viršist t.d. hafa oršiš eitt mikilvęgasta prinsippmįl repśblķkanaflokksins. Ķ kappręšum forsetaframbjóšenda flokksins fyrir tveimur vikum kepptust frambjóšendurnir nefnilega viš aš yfirbjóša hvorn annan žegar žeir voru spuršir hvaš žeir myndu vera tilbśnir aš ganga langt ķ aš kreista upplżsingar śt śr grunušum hryšjuverkamönnum. Mitt Romney baušst t.d. til aš tvöfalda tvöfalda Guantanamo. Eftirfarandi upptaka af kappręšunum segir sennilega allt sem segja žarf:

Hvaš žaš er sem veldur žessari pyntingaįst flokksins er mér eiginlega hulin rįšgįta, og segir lķklega meira um andlegt įstand "the base", ž.e. höršustu stušningsmanna flokksins, kjósenda sem rįša žvķ hverjir sigra prófkjör. Žetta pyntingarugl er eitt mikilvęgasta framlag Bush stjórnarinnar til pólķtķskrar umręšu ķ Bandarķkjunum, žvķ stjórnin hefur gengiš fram fyrir skjöldu ķ barįttunni fyrir žvķ aš pyntingar verši višurkenndar sem hluti af "ešlilegum" vinnubrögšum hersins og leynižjónustunnar - og Fox news og ašrir mešlimir blašurmaskķnunnar hafa svo gripiš fįnann į lofti og talaš fjįlglega um Jack Bauer, og sjónvarpsserķuna 24, sannfęršir um aš žaš sé ekki hęgt aš sigra "strķšiš gegn hryšjuverkum" nema Bandarķkjamenn leggist enn lęgra en Al-Qaeda.

Žaš sem gerir žetta pyntingamįl fįrįnlegra er aš sķšan fréttir af Abu Ghraib bįrust fyrst, og jafnvel enn fyrr, hafa yfirheyrslusérfręšingar varaš viš žvķ opinberlega aš pyntingar séu nįnast gangslausar! New York Times flutti svo ķ gęr frétt af nżrri skżrslu sem samin var fyrir stjórnina af öllum helstu sérfręšingum ķ yfirheyrslum:

As the Bush administration completes secret new rules governing interrogations, a group of experts advising the intelligence agencies are arguing that the harsh techniques used since the 2001 terrorist attacks are outmoded, amateurish and unreliable.

The psychologists and other specialists, commissioned by the Intelligence Science Board, make the case that more than five years after the Sept. 11 attacks, the Bush administration has yet to create an elite corps of interrogators trained to glean secrets from terrorism suspects.

Frekar en aš žjįlfa menn ķ aš yfirheyra fanga, t.d. meš žvķ aš halda ķ og rįša menn sem kunna arabķsku, eša leita aš yfirheyrsluašferšum sem raunverulea virka, hefur stjórnin barist fyrir žvķ aš rżmka lagaheimildir fyrir pyntingum:

Robert F. Coulam, a research professor and attorney at Simmons College and a study participant, said that the government’s most vigorous work on interrogation to date has been in seeking legal justifications for harsh tactics. Even today, he said, “there’s nothing like the mobilization of effort and political energy that was put into relaxing the rules” governing interrogation.

Skżrsluhöfundar benda į aš ķ seinni heimsstyrjöldinni hafi Bandarķkjaher haft mun įręšanlegri yfirheyrsluašferšir, sem hafi ekki byggst į ofbeldi og villimennsku:

...some of the experts involved in the interrogation review, called “Educing Information,” say that during World War II, German and Japanese prisoners were effectively questioned without coercion.

It far outclassed what we’ve done,” said Steven M. Kleinman, a former Air Force interrogator and trainer, who has studied the World War II program of interrogating Germans. The questioners at Fort Hunt, Va., “had graduate degrees in law and philosophy, spoke the language flawlessly,” and prepared for four to six hours for each hour of questioning, said Mr. Kleinman, who wrote two chapters for the December report.

Mr. Kleinman, who worked as an interrogator in Iraq in 2003, called the post-Sept. 11 efforts “amateurish” by comparison to the World War II program, with inexperienced interrogators who worked through interpreters and had little familiarity with the prisoners’ culture.

En svoleišis skipulag, undirbśning og fagmennska höfšar ekki til drulluhįleista sem halda aš ofbeldi og tuddaskapur séu til marks um karlmennsku, smįdrengja sem eru bśnir aš horfa of mikiš į sjónvarp og langar til aš sparka ķ annaš fólk.

President Bush has insisted that those secret “enhanced” techniques are crucial, and he is far from alone. The notion that turning up pressure and pain on a prisoner will produce valuable intelligence is a staple of popular culture from the television series “24” to the recent Republican presidential debate, where some candidates tried to outdo one another in vowing to get tough on captured terrorists.

Update: ég fann lengra myndskeiš af žessari pyntingarumręšu - žaš er mun betra en fyrra myndskeišiš, žvķ žeir fara ekki almennilega į flug fyrr en svolķtiš er lišiš į svörin!

Bestu partarnir eru Romney, c.a. 3:20 markinu, žegar hann talar um aš žaš žurfi aš tvöfalda Guantano, žvķ Guantanamo sé frįbęrt vegna žess aš žar hafi hryšjuverkamennirnir ekki ašgang aš lögfręšingum...

Mandrake, were you ever a prisoner of war?
                MANDRAKE
Well, Jack, the time's running...very... huh?
                RIPPER
Were you ever a prisoner of war?
                MANDRAKE
Ah yes I was. Matter of fact, Jack, I was.
                RIPPER
Did they torture you?
                MANDRAKE
Ah...  yes,  they did. I was tortured by the Japanese, Jack, if you must know. Not a pretty story.
                RIPPER
Well what happened?
                MANDRAKE
Oh... well... I don't know, Jack. Difficult to think of under these conditions.  But,  well,  what happened was they got me on the old Rangoon  HNRR  railway.  I  was  laying rain mines for the bloody Japanese puff puffs.
                RIPPER
No, I mean when they tortured you, did you talk?
                MANDRAKE
Ah,  oh no, I ah... I don't think they wanted me to talk, really. I don't  think  they wanted me to say anything. It was just their way of  having...  a bit of fun, the swines. Strange thing is they make such bloody good cameras.
