Book The Schlesinger Report

Download or read book The Schlesinger Report written by Department of Defense and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of October through December 2003 on the night shift of Tier 1 at Abu Ghraib prison were acts of brutality and purposeless sadism. We now know these abuses occurred at the hands of both military police and military intelligence personnel. The pictured abuses, unacceptable - even in wartime, were not part of authorized interrogations nor were they even directed at intelligence targets. They represent deviant behavior and a failure of military leadership and discipline.Released to the public in August 2004, The Schlesinger Report provides a detailed account of how U.S. policy processes at the U.S. Department of Defense directly contributed to abuses carried out by U.S. military personnel during detention and interrogation operations at Abu Ghraib prison. This shocking report makes available - for the first time - an official chronology of the release of horrific abuse photos to the American public as well as the evolution of interrogation policies and techniques used in Iraq. Includes a comprehensive summary of the psychological stresses and ethical issues that resulted from the Abu Ghraib fiasco.JAMES R. SCHLESINGER, secretary of defense for Presidents Nixon and Ford and secretary of energy for President Carter, served as the panel's chairman.

  • Author : Tara McKelvey
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2009-04-28
  • ISBN : 0786732148
  • Pages : 324 pages

Download or read book Monstering written by Tara McKelvey and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In April 2004, the Abu Ghraib photographs set off an international scandal. Yet until now, the full story has never been told. Tara McKelvey -- the first U.S. journalist to speak with female prisoners from Abu Ghraib -- traveled to the Middle East and across the United States to seek out victims and perpetrators. McKelvey tells how soldiers, acting in an atmosphere that encouraged abuse and sadism, were unleashed on a prison population of which the vast majority, according to army documents, were innocent civilians. Drawing upon critical sources, she discloses a series of explosive revelations: An exclusive jailhouse interview with Lynndie England connects the Abu Ghraib pictures to lewd vacation photos taken by England's boyfriend Charles Graner; formerly undisclosed videotapes show soldiers "Robotripping" on cocktails of over-the-counter drugs while pretending to stab detainees; new material sheds light on accusations against an American suspected of raping an Iraqi child; and first-hand accounts suggest the use of high-voltage devises, sexual humiliation and pharmaceutical drugs on Iraqi prisoners. She also provides an inside look at Justice Department theories of presidential power to show how the many abuses were licensed by the government.

Book The Cost of Counterterrorism

Download or read book The Cost of Counterterrorism written by Laura K. Donohue and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2008-04-14 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of a terrorist attack political stakes are high: legislators fear being seen as lenient or indifferent and often grant the executive broader authorities without thorough debate. The judiciary's role, too, is restricted: constitutional structure and cultural norms narrow the courts' ability to check the executive at all but the margins. The dominant 'Security or Freedom' framework for evaluating counterterrorist law thus fails to capture an important characteristic: increased executive power that shifts the balance between branches of government. This book re-calculates the cost of counterterrorist law to the United Kingdom and the United States, arguing that the damage caused is significantly greater than first appears. Donohue warns that the proliferation of biological and nuclear materials, together with willingness on the part of extremists to sacrifice themselves, may drive each country to take increasingly drastic measures with a resultant shift in the basic structure of both states.
