The Official Senate Report on CIA Torture by U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Pdf

Now available to the public for the first time, the Senate's landmark torture report delivers a damning indictment on CIA interrogation practices. Finally declassified and released after five years in the making, the Senate Intelligence Committee’s report on the CIA’s torture program, which describes in excruciating detail what Obama has called “harsh methods . . . inconsistent with our values as a nation,” is now available to the American public—citizens who have a right to know the truth. Considered one of the most important government documents ever to be published, the torture report compiles the Senate committee’s findings of the CIA’s program to detain and interrogate terrorist threats in the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, from 2001 to 2006 during the Bush administration. Among other controversial conclusions, the report has found that the CIA’s “enhanced interrogation techniques” were not effective in acquiring intelligence to avert terrorist threats. The study also shows that the CIA misled the public, Congress, the Department of Justice, and even the White House on the effectiveness and the scope and severity of their interrogation techniques. The exhaustive and disturbing account also provides grisly accounts on horrific practices that occurred in CIA black sites: prisoners experienced sleep deprivation in stressful positions for up to 180 hours; being stripped and shackled, hooded and dragged down a long corridor while being punched; waterboarding; and “rectal feeding.” Based on six million CIA documents and requiring $40 million to complete, the entire 6,000-page report still remains classified. Only 525 pages of summary have been published, with 7 percent of its content redacted, and it is now at the disposal of American readers who have the opportunity to learn what occurred during this dark chapter in modern American history. The Senate report delivers a scathing, shocking, and controversial judgment, and gives us much to think about in terms of our longstanding position on freedom, democracy, dignity, and human rights.

The CIA Torture Report by Senate Select Senate Select Committee on Intelligence,Dianne Feinstein Pdf

The Committee Study of the Central Intelligence Agency's Detention and Interrogation Program, commonly known as the CIA Torture Report, is the 526-page unclassified summary of a 5,000-plus-page report compiled by the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence about the Central Intelligence Agency Detention and Interrogation Program. The CIA used enhanced interrogation techniques (a euphemism for torture) on detainees following the 9/11 attacks. The full report has not been published, but the committee voted in April 2014 to release the recommendations, executive summary, and findings of the report. The unclassified summary was released on December 9, 2014, after a presentation on the floor of the Senate by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA), the chairwoman of the Select Committee on Intelligence. Over 90% of the report remains classified. The report, which took four years and $40 million to compile, focused on 2001-06. It detailed actions by CIA officials and shortcomings of the detention project. One key finding was that enhanced interrogation techniques did not help acquire actionable intelligence or gain cooperation from detainees. The report also details the CIA's misrepresentations to both Congress and the Bush Administration leadership, about the scope of the program and the details surrounding use of torture. The CIA Torture Report is a chilling and eye-opening document, and one that every citizen should read and contemplate.

Committee Study of the Central Intelligence Agency's Detention and Interrogation Program by Senate Select Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Pdf

**UNCLASSIFIED EXECUTIVE SUMMARY AS REDACTED FOR RELEASE TO THE PUBLIC** From the Foreword: On April 3, 2014 the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence voted to send the Findings and conclusions and THIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY of its final Study on the CIA's Detention and Interrogation program to the president for declassification and subsequent public release. This action marked the culmination of a monumental effort that officially began with the Committee's decision to initiate the Study in March 2009, but which had its roots in an investigation into the CIA's destruction of videotapes of CIA detainee interrogations that began in December 2007. The full Committee Study, which totals more than 6,700 pages, remains classified but is now an official Senate report. The full report has been provided to the White House, the CIA, the Department of Justice, the Department of Defense, the Department of State, and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence in the hopes that it will prevent future covert interrogation practices and inform the management of other covert action programs. The Committee's Study is more than ten times the length of THIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY and includes comprehensive and excruciating detail... While THIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY provides sufficient detail... the full Committee Study is far more extensive... I chose not to seek declassification of the full Committee Study at this time.... Seeking declassification of the more than six thousand page report would have significantly delayed the release of THIS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY. - Dianne Feinstein, Senate Select Committee on Intelligence Chairman

Rebuttal by Bill Harlow Pdf

In December 2014, the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) released a 500+ page executive summary of a 6,000 page study of the CIA's detention and interrogation of al Qa'ida terrorists. In early 2015 publishers released the study in book form and called it "the report" on "torture." Rebuttal presents the "rest of the story." In addition to reprinting the official responses from the SSCI minority and CIA, this publication also includes eight essays from senior former CIA officials who all are deeply knowledgeable about the program —and yet none of whom were interviewed by the SSCI staff during the more than four years the report was in preparation. These authors of the eight essays are George Tenet, Porter Goss, Gen. Michael V. Hayden, USAF (Ret.), John McLaughlin, Michael Morell, J. Philip Mudd, John Rizzo, and Jose A. Rodriguez, Jr.

Report on the CIA Detention and Interrogation Program by United States United States Senate Intelligence Committee Pdf

This is the full text of the unclassified US Senate report on the CIA's detention and interrogation program. This controversial document, also referred to as the CIA Torture Report, will resonate for decades as Americans debate the after-effects of the September 11, 2001 attacks and the ensuing War on Terror. On December 9, 2014, the US Senate Intelligence Committee released the unclassified executive summary of the committee's five-year review of the CIA's detention and interrogation program. The release included redacted versions of the committee's executive summary and findings and conclusions, as well as additional and minority views authored by members of the committee. The committee voted to initiate the review on March 5, 2009, with a bipartisan 14-1 vote. Over the following three and a half years, committee staff reviewed more than 6.3 million pages of CIA records, a painstaking process that culminated in the committee's 9-6 bipartisan vote to approve the study on December 13, 2012. Months of meetings with the CIA and work to update the study followed, and on April 3, 2014, the committee voted 11-3 to declassify and release the committee's report. The committee has worked with the Executive Branch over the past eight months to prepare a redacted version designed to protection national security while allowing for the public release of this information. Key findings The study's 20 findings and conclusions can be grouped into four central themes, each of which is supported extensively in the Executive Summary: 1. The CIA's "enhanced interrogation techniques" were not effective. 2. The CIA provided extensive inaccurate information about the operation of the program and its effectiveness to policymakers and the public. 3. The CIA's management of the program was inadequate and deeply flawed. 4. The CIA program was far more brutal than the CIA represented to policymakers and the American public.
