Amnesty unveils shock 'waterboarding' film
By Sheila Samples
Malcolm Nance, who trained hundreds of US servicemen and women to resist interrogation through "waterboarding" exercises, demanded an immediate end to the practice by all US personnel. "They seem to think it is worth throwing the honour of 220 years of American decency in war out of the window. Waterboarding is out-and-out torture, and I'm deeply ashamed Bush has authorised its use and dragged the US reputation into the mud."
