American Psychological Association Debates Torture

There is nothing wrong with a psychologist participating in a legitimate military interrogation, but what the APA is debating now is whether psychologists should participate in torture.

Water-boarding, sleep deprivation, beatings, stress positions, extremes in temperature, threats to children...These are torture, and any psychologist, or for that matter any medical professional who aided in this, should never be licensed to practice medicine ever again.
