Report: U.S. Experimented on Terror Detainees.

When the torture memos were released, one of the things I noticed was that the authors used the presence of physicians in interrogations as alibis. The presence of the doctors was meant as proof of the U.S. officials' "good faith belief" that they didn't mean to inflict "severe physical or mental suffering" on the detainees they were interrogating, even though the express purpose of the so-called enhanced interrogation techniques was to inflict enough suffering on people to get them to talk.
