Dick Cheney Says Forced Rectal Feedings Were for "Medical Reasons"

***********************************************************************************************************************

The report reveals severe methods allegedly used by some CIA officers, who "deceived their superiors at the White House, members of Congress and even sometimes their own peers about how the interrogation program was being run and what it had achieved." From the Washington Post, emphasis ours:

A declassified summary of the committee's work discloses for the first time a complete roster of all 119 prisoners held in CIA custody and indicates that at least 26 were held because of mistaken identities or bad intelligence. The publicly released summary is drawn from a longer, classified study that exceeds 6,000 pages.

Per Bloomberg, one of those detainees apparently died of hypothermia as he lie shackled to a concrete floor; another was left in the complete darkness for 17 days "without anybody knowing he was there." Waterboarding, the report states, devolved into a "series of near drownings"; prisoners were allegedly forced to stand on their broken legs. Some were forced to stay awake for 180 hours—at least five endured forced "rectal feeding" and "rectal rehydration."
