I originally thought that this article would be about the U.S. agents/tormenters and how it damages their mind. That torture would damage the mind of the tortured seemed too obvious.
To digress, the idea that an American citizen could be ordered to act in deplorable manner is in itself deplorable. One would think that the most powerful, idealistic, and fortunate nation on earth wouldn't have to put its citizens in this situation and instead would take every opportunity be a global moral leader.
