Full Senate Torture Report: A Glimpse into America's Legacy of Cruel and Violent Racism

by Winston Smith
Here's the full "unclassified" Senate Select Committee on Intelligence torture report, full in the sense of the entire report, not full because it is redaction-free. There's plenty our Senate "intelligence" overlords do not want us to see or know.

Committee Study of the Central Intelligence Agency's Detention and Interrogation Program:

American dungeons with rectal feeding, walling, waterboarding, sleep deprivation, dragging, slapping, cutting off clothes, sexual threats, threats against children and families, blasting loud music, buying off allies to host black site facilities, you name it. If some twisted, sadistic, and depraved CIA fuck could think of it, they did it, all with the encouragement and approval of Bush, Cheney, Rice, and all those other demons. It didn't even produce good intelligence, innocent people were tortured, and some were even killed. Shit, we're still holding a bunch of people in Guantanamo today, torturing them with force-feeding. Everyone who reads this Senate report can all be sure that what's made public here is likely just the tip of the iceberg.

If you are hoping for prosecutions, forget about it. Nancy Pelosi, Dianne Feinstein, and Barack Obama and countless other Democratic and Republican politicians have made sure that will never happen. UC Berkeley's John Yoo and helped justify it all -- if torturers weren't ripping internal organs out of detainees, then it's not torture, but "enhanced interrogation." Likewise, Ninth Circuit judge Jay Bybee justified torture and massive violence on the whim of any U.S. president. Historically, the U.S. has prosecuted torturers from other countries for things like waterboarding, but this group of violent criminals think if Americans do it, then it's all good.

Everyone who approves of torturing Muslim people, then and now, those who ordered it, carried it out, and offered legal cover should be tortured themselves, probably to death. The world would be a much better place.

Yes, death to torturers and their apologists.

The only problem is that no one but them is sick enough to torture them to death. They'd have to do it to each other. A big circle jerk of sadistic cruelty.

Since its inception in 1946 when Democrat Truman was president, founded by 350 German Nazis, the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has been torturing people of all colors and overthrowing governments around the world to benefit the profits of the US capitalist class, proudly supported by the twin parties of war and fascism, the Democrat-Republicans. WHEN YOU VOTE DEMOCRAT OR REPUBLICAN, YOU VOTE FOR TORTURE AND YOU VOTE FOR THE CIA.

Here is the statement on who founded the CIA by a deceased expert on same, John Judge, at
http://archive.politicalassassinations.net/2014/04/john-judge-obituary-and-request-for-reflections/
Acclaimed nationally and internationally for his vast store of historical knowledge, Judge wrote: “Under the evil genius of Allen Dulles, whose espionage attacks on the Soviet Union date back to the 1920’s, $200 million in Rockefeller and Mellon funds was directed into the hands of Hitler’s spymaster Reinhard Gehlen and his 350 Nazi spies, who formed and founded our Central Intelligence Agency in 1947.”

Here is one article describing many egregious examples over the years long before the 9/11 Inside Job. See
"U.S. didn’t start torturing people on 9-11" by Eli Stephens, 12/10/14 at

William Blum has written many books on the CIA and the horrors of US imperialism, including Killing Hope. See

The Democrat-Republicans are proud supporters of the CIA, a vicious, fascist, torture agency. Torture is horrifying pain and often death and is ALWAYS WRONG. It also happens to be illegal. Nazi Democrat Obama comes from a CIA family, so of course, he will never prosecute his political family. Nazi Republican Bush also comes from a CIA family, including George H.W. Bush, his father, who was CIA director 1976-1977.

Nazi USA's capitalist class perpetrated the 9/11 Inside Job, the American Reichstag Fire, for the same reason the Nazis burned their own government building, the Reichstag, and then blamed the Communists. That reason was to blame political enemies so as perpetrate war and fascism to maximize profits for the capitalist class, the greatest profits being in oil and munitions.

When you hear anyone tell you to vote for Democrats, tell them you will never vote for the CIA, which is supported by Democrats. Instead you will vote for Peace & Freedom Party or the Green Party, both staunch opponents of the CIA, torture, war and fascism. You can register online at

Actually it is a 525 page summery of a 6000 page condensation of a 100000 page report collected from over 6000000 CIA documents.

Can you recall when Obama was caught lying to Feinstein about how he held back 12000 pages of that 100000 page report. I guess those were pages that talked about days when the sick perverted war criminals didn't brutalize the prisoners, but instead brought them ice cream.

It is nothing close to a full report. To propagandists, it looks more like what you call a "limited hangout". That is when you know you are caught and give the people just the tip of the ice burg in the hopes that most people are too dense or too trusting to believe it is the whole story and maybe it will all just blow over.

Maybe they are right to believe that most people are too dense or too trusting. Time and your actions will tell us that.

In 2009 the CIA was busted out for destroying video of "enhanced interrogations" (aka torture when anyone else does it). And congress investigated. Or is it "investigated", because all they did was read a report from the CIA and questioned no one at all, not the sick degenerates nor the victims. Nope, they just rubber stamped the CIA report and things just blew over. Well, not everything just blew over. Congress did expose themselves as being team players and thus a part of the war crimes.
