Did the Bush Administration Experiment on Detainees?
As more slowly comes forward, thankfully quicker then our occupation Vietnam, they were out doing Saddam on a much faster pace as to torture, killing and maiming and turn once peaceful people into refugee's and some into insurgent guerilla forces, and others, as to Human Rights Violations and Laws we helped write and implement as well as use against others in condemnation of or prosecutions!

In the course of trying to prove that its "enhanced" interrogation program was legal, the Bush administration may have broken the law, according to a new report (PDF) by Physicians for Human Rights. The watchdog group claims that in an attempt to establish that brutal interrogation tactics did not constitute torture, the administration ended up effectively experimenting on terrorism detainees. This research, PHR alleges, violated an array of regulations and treaties, including international guidelines on human testing put in place after the Holocaust.
According to the report, which draws on numerous declassified government documents, "medical professionals working for and on behalf of the CIA" frequently monitored detainee interrogations, gathering data on the effectiveness of various interrogation techniques and the pain threshholds of detainees. This information was then used to "enhance" future interrogations, PHR contends. Continued
