Red Cross Reports Labels Torture Program "Inhuman"

The Red Cross, the most credible and respected human rights watchdog in the world, call the Bush-era CIA torture programs "inhuman". It is broad, meticulous evidence of pre-meditated, illegal, and immoral war crimes that were then subject to cover-up and lies at the highest levels.
"Medical officers who oversaw interrogations of terrorism suspects in CIA secret prisons committed gross violations of medical ethics and in some cases essentially participated in torture, the International Committee of the Red Cross concluded in a confidential report that labeled the CIA program 'inhuman'."
Paging John Yoo.
