With last week's release of the Bush torture memos, many are wondering when interrogation becomes torture. Reports Alex Kingsbury: "Bush administration lawyers asserted in these legal opinions that waterboarding is 'not physically painful.' But Assistant Attorney General Jay Bybee also wrote ... that its use does 'constitute a threat of imminent death.' He added, 'The waterboard is simply a controlled acute episode, lacking the connotation of a protracted period of time generally given to suffering.'" What do you think? When does interrogation become torture? Post your thoughts.

It becomes torcher when they use interrogation techniques that lock onto the human neural network and extract information by wireless interrogation against a persons will; where two signals are simultaneously transmitted to the brain of a subject to induce pain, or interrogate that indicidual without him having to speak. (Somewhat similar to listening to a baby's heartbeat with ultrasound). In this instance they direct the signals to the human brains receptors, which lock onto the signals and follow them. This technique requires their GPS Satellites for mapping. Now, we have the knowledge of the mixture of technologies which incorporate Enhanced Communication Satellites with Mapping Satellites (GPS). Brain Mapping is a technology that is also used. I've been torchered in the United States by our Government and still currently being torchered. My physician said they are killing me this way and that they threatened him to be quiet about this or they would take his physicians license since he was from Hungary. That's when Interrogation becomes torcher. I have met other individuals that are in a "Neural Network" loop where all of their brains receptors are in a Wide Area Network, just like a router, and they can communicate with each other and attack their targets without ever speaking a word to each other. Ask me how I know about these technologies? They leaked them to me, threatened me to work for them and torcher me, which is leaving large amounts of scar tissue in my skull and putting pressure on my brain, cited by my physician that it will cause death if not stopped. They get away with torcher by not disclosing the facts of their interrogation methods. They aren't telling the truth. Of course, you have this too, they make you look like you have a mental problem if you tell on them, just like they did their own NSA employees who exposed them. I think we all have better things to do than have to reach out with evidence of Government Corruption and the use of technologies that they use to kill Americans and hide their own crimes. Here are some links below to support the proof of the technology existence, since they will have their people get on this site to discredit Whistleblowers. US Patents don't lie. Verify them in the US Patent Office Online. http://appft1.uspto.gov/netahtml/PTO/search-adv.html

The e911 Meth Coalition uses it in Missouri to bust drug dealers and target mob, gangs, etc. The police are part of those organizations here and they are killing everyone who owns dirt on them, by the use of these enhanced communication satellites. Thats when it becomes torcher. That's what the Bush Administration created. A death squad to cover up the governments own crimes. God Speed to all.
