‘Some Will Call Me a Torturer’: CIA Man Reveals Secret Jail
Admitting that “some will call me a torturer” is a surefire way to cut yourself off from anyone’s sympathy. But Glenn Carle, a former CIA operative, isn’t sure whether he’s the hero or the villain of his own story.
Distilled, that story, told in Carle’s new memoir The Interrogator, is this: In the months after 9/11, the CIA kidnaps a suspected senior member of al-Qaida and takes him to a Mideast country for interrogation. It assigns Carle — like nearly all his colleagues then, an inexperienced interrogator — to pry information out of him. Uneasy with the CIA’s new, relaxed rules for questioning, which allow him to torture, Carle instead tries to build a rapport with the man he calls CAPTUS.
But CAPTUS doesn’t divulge the al-Qaida plans the CIA suspects him of knowing. So the agency sends him to “Hotel California” — an unacknowledged prison, beyond the reach of the Red Cross or international law....
This interview looks far more indepth than just being a book promotion. Torture is a subject the Church needs to take a closer look at and then stand against it.
Another person selling a book. Why doesn't SermonAudio create a separate category for book promotions and remove them from the news? And if they're going to promote books, don't do it for free, get some compensation via being an affiliate of a bookseller web site.
