內容簡介: |
"Something really bad happened here." So begins Army
interrogator Tony Lagouranis''s first briefing at Abu Ghraib. While
Lagouranis''s training stressed the rules of the Geneva Conventions,
once in Iraq, he discovered that pushing the legal limits of
interrogation was encouraged. Under orders, he-along with numerous
other soldiers-abused and terrorized Iraqis by adding
"enhancements" like dogs, hypothermia, and other techniques to
"Fear Up Harsh"-the official tactic designed to frighten prisoners
into revealing information. And he saw others do far worse.
The first Army interrogator to publicly step forward and break
the silence surrounding these tactics, Lagouranis reveals what went
on in Iraqi prisons- raising crucial questions about American
conduct abroad.
