SERE NCOIC here (circa 1998). One of the things students are actually meant to learn is the difference between torture and interrogation. You can ALWAYS resist interrogation. You cannot resist torture. Torture is not done for the purposes of gaining information; it is done out of sadism. Torturers know their victims will say anything they think the torturer wants to hear in an effort to stop the pain. But interrogators want factual information. What happened to you (and me, of course; all SERE personnel must be graduates of the course) in the RTL was not torture. (As an aside, it is too bad we in the Army were not allowed to waterboard students. Was always jealous about the Navy's course because of that)!

Exceedingly harmful to view torture as anything other than a punitive dehumanization of your opponent. Friendly reminder that the best interrogator in history was a German man named Hanns Scharff. He frequently got his info out of POW's by treating them with kindness, often doing stuff such as: Telling jokes, giving them homemade meals, occasionally sharing drinks with them, going on nature walks, amongst many other things. It's a well-documented myth that torture makes everyone talk, and when it does, what they say will seldom be reliable information. See Thomas Perez Jr for a modern example of the utter ineffectiveness of torture. Spend any amount of time researching the subject, and you'll be astonished by how bad torture actually is at obtaining usable data. Sources that state the contrary are typically military - or military sponsored - outlets that seek to justify their methods by portraying torture as a 'necessary evil'. I don't care what nation your military derives from; nobody should be doing it
@chriz995917 күн бұрын
i agree.there is some scientific work on why torture doesn't help. many prisoners will say anything to make it stop. That's why torture doesn't stand up in court. That's why profilers and detectives use far more effective methods, like the reid interrogation technique, paired with NLP, where the core success is to build a strong rapport with the suspect
@manchld16 күн бұрын
To the torturer it seems like everyone talks, because they will say anything and everything you want them to say. You want them to say they're guilty of X, they'll lie and say it. All your leading questions will lead them to lie. After a while they might even believe it.

You are quite focused on the purpose of torture being only to obtain information, and bad at it. Torture works well to obtain information, you don’t have to wine and dine as you mentioned being a better method. And torture is just done to inflict harm. Doesn’t have to be for information. You might be overlooking to propensity for humans to torture one another for endless reasons

My grandfather was tortured by the Nazis at the end of WW2, after a while he realized they wouldn't stop until he "cracked" so he faked it and acted as if he told them everything, but he told outdated information on hideouts and airdrop points that wasn't used anymore. They bought it and let him go. When the war was over he met his interrogator before the execution, and he was baffled at how much my grandpa really knew, told him he would've never left that room if they knew. Norwegian war hero Gunnar Sønsteby wrote a few lines about it in one of his books.

Exactly. Similar stories all over Eastern Europe in the ex-communist block. During weapon confiscation in the 40s my great grandpa hid his hunting rifle in a tree trunk in the woods. He wouldn't give it up because he needed it to hunt for his family (also illegal). He was incarcerated and tortured for 1 month. Did not disclose the location of the gun, continued saying he does not have one (his bro in law originally reported him as hiding the gun). So he denied and they let him go after 1 month. He was missing all nails and several teeth. At 175 cm he weighed just 30 kilos. Couldn't walk. Was packed in a carriage like luggage and delivered home to his starving family. He was just in his 30s. He recovered with tree bark soup and eating weeds (communists confiscated grains and it was a horrible drought, many ate their family). After that he kept hunting, but went much deeper in the woods. He lived on until the age of 92.

During World War II, several remarkable British women served as spies, demonstrating extraordinary resilience under inhuman interrogation and torture. Violette Szabo, a Special Operations Executive (SOE) agent, was captured in France in 1944; despite brutal torture, she remained loyal and did not reveal any information, leading to her execution at Ravensbrück. She was posthumously awarded the George Cross for her exceptional bravery. Nancy Wake, an (edit* New Zealand Born) Australian-born British spy named the “White Mouse,” by the Gestapo, was captured by the Gestapo in 1943; yet she withstood severe interrogation and even managed to escape, continuing her resistance work. Her valour was recognized with the George Medal, the Médaille de la Résistance, and the Légion d'Honneur. Odette Hallowes, another SOE agent, was arrested in 1943 and subjected to harsh interrogation but remained silent, preserving the safety of her network. She was honoured with the George Cross and the Croix de Guerre medal from France.

@@Coldddpalmer You're right to point out the distinction. Nancy Wake was born in New Zealand and raised in Australia, making her a New Zealand-born Australian. However, she worked as a spy for the British Special Operations Executive (SOE) during World War II, which is why she is associated with British intelligence. Her work with the SOE is what connects her to British operations, even though she was not British by nationality. Judging by the other twos names, I dare say the same can be said of them too.

Sleep deprivation is the worst part and not mentioned! The noise distraction is accompanied by continual fluorescent light so you can’t tell the passing of time - no night or day, constant questioning, thirst and disorientation is enough to break nearly all after three days without actually using electrodes/waterboarding - the constant fear is enough. They know back at base you will break, the name of the game is to survive long enough so it’s known your missing and your unit can change any plans that you have knowledge of and so change the operation. Hence ‘need to know’ basis is so important so the damage can be limited. My uncle who recently passed, spread his ashes up Snowdonia followed a similar path as you - Royal Engineer then 9 Sqn para trained and bomb disposal but didn’t go on from there as you did but did his 22. I only did 12 with Green Slime then saw how much money as consultant could be made. Grass is always greener. Missed military life like hell. People don’t get it’s a way of life not just a job.

Only later would i find out who the other two were with him. They sat at the furthest table away, in a corner facing every exit. The SAS guy scanned everyone in the room including myself within a few minutes. They ordered, then he got up and headed to the toilets before his food arrived. On his way back he took the longest route back to his table even entering the second bar momentarily. I watched the whole thing and noticed also that no one else noticed him do this. It was like he was invisible. We got to the talk, sat front row, he walked out and i remarked cockily to my mate, see i told you it was him in the pub. The SAS guy made his introduction but before the talk started he stepped forward and said to me quite forcefully How did you know who i was in the pub? I felt well intimidated, in front of a crowd of 70 silent people. I knew he had seen me watching him even as discreetly as i could. I said i just guessed. A half truth. He replied, no you f..,ing didn't and laughed. You can do better than that! Feeling completely ousted i thought i better explain and went on to point out everything i had read about Grey man tactics used by counter intelligence and special forces on urban servailance missions or working as bodyguards. Books i had read for 20 years as a young fan of the elite forces. He then totally changed demeanour and said, well done for paying attention. After the talk my friend queued up for the book signing. The SAS guy then said to me, you've given me some good feedback to work with cheers. A truly humble moment. Just to add, there were no public photos of him at that time, none in his book, he used a Ghost writer name as he was yet to be famous. Neither my friend or i had ever seen him before and when he entered the pub he was dressed like a country gamekeeper or rambler blending in far better in a country pub than my friend and i ever could with the locals who were mostly dressed in the similar gear to him. He changed clothing for the talk. The only real thing that gave him away was his choosing the only empty table where he could face the exits over other empty tables he had to pass-by. Had i missed that i wouldn't have studied him further. He chose the optimum moment to check out the empty toilets un noticed and walk into the second bar unnoticed in a full pub. Nothing about his stance said ex military. Although he was a former SAS and anonymous in society then, he still had to watch his back due to undisclosed missions in Northern Ireland and dozens of countries across the world. I was just lucky we chose a random table where i could see him scan the room. His training paid off as I'm sure only lucky me even noticed him. During the talk he told us how they learned to become homeless, live rough in busy cities across Britain for 6 months in order to apprehend organised drug gangs in the early 90's rave era when drugs, guns and turf wars escalated as part of a joint operation with law enforcement. Literally hiding in plain sight. He said the hardest part was fooling the homeless themselves, not the public or the drug gangs.. It took weeks to build trust with the homeless and maintain cover stories. Ironically genuine homeless people are often the most invisible in society but it showed they are no less aware of there own surroundings and who to trust that enters it. Perfect grey man. There is a lesson in that i have never forgotten and this legend just explained why its so important.

When you think about it there are quite alot of similarities to what he was saying obviously pretty tame in comparison but it wouldn't surprise me if that's deliberate, and they employ a watered down version of the same techniques

I went through the Sere program in the Air Force for aircrew and pilots. Its a lot of fun listening to it from the interrogators perspective. I was told because I was low ranking enlisted it would be much easier for me. Most of our adversaries have a strictly hierarchical military structure. They expect low ranking to not know anything and be kept in the dark. Would be different with someone who understood American Military. The goals he talks about are so similar to ours. Stay alive and come home with honor. First thing they tell you is everyone breaks. What matters is how you break and if you let them convince you now that have broken once you have to stay broken. There is this practice about undermining your own credibility using their own brutality against them. If they're torturing you, really milk it. You're in so much pain you can't think, or pay attention, you'll tell them anything they want to hear. Things like that. It can be frustrating for an interrogator if everytime they torture you they can't get anything coherent out of you and they can't be sure anything you're telling them is real.

But with the situation where the interrogators are trying to get a certain bit of information out of you, but you genuinely don't know the answer to their question. But they're convinced you DO know the answer to their question. You couldn't stop the torment even if they broke you, it would just carry on and on and on. That is what hell looks like.

Torture had never been, nor will it likely every be, a means for extracting information. At some point people will say whatever to make the pain stop, and thats not the same at all as gaining useful information. Honestly the way that modern states employ torture isn't even to gain any information, but rather to retroactively justify previous crimes and atrocities, as well as just for the sake of it. Absolutely disgusting.
@thesanfranciscoseahorse47320 күн бұрын
I think there is also an additional fear factor. If an enemy knows thar torture is a real option they may be more likely to put up less resistance under certain circumstances. I am not trying to justify it's practice. Just pointing out that the fear factor can have some strategic military uses.... I think this was evident with the Mongols historically. I've read they would often offer a city or a village the choice between a torturous death, or surrender without combat. The threat alone was effective enough that they captured many cities without having to spill any blood. But they were also able to make good on their threat too.

The US intelligence community would strongly disagree. They're report to Congress was that "enhanced interrogations" had yielded actionable intelligence which had lead to terror attacks being identified and thwarted, and that information couldn't be obtained in less aggressive ways. Clearly not all torture is effective or necessary. But it's also true that not all torture is ineffective, or bluntly "unnecessary" (in the sense you could obtain the info differently). The key is likely around how you validate that info - if you can rapidly verify what someone tells you, and they know that, it becomes harder for them to lie, and you know you've got the truth when you do.

As a kidney dialysis patient for 9 years, plus recovering from a kidney transplant, and all of the anti-rejection medications- (enough to make you go psychotic), I fully identify with you and what you say about medical torture. It was either choosing death over having huge needles jammed into a huge vein surgically placed into your arm, for 4 hours, every other day... sucking out all of your blood and extra fluids, until you pass out from dehydration... every other day, for 9 years,... including holidays. And your placed in a giant cold very chaotic, noisy room full of chairs that recline, and every chair has people with missing limbs, diabetic ulcers, adults wearing diapers, or they weren't born mentally right, or very elderly with dementia, I described to my nephrologist that dialysis is torture. She said, it's not really that bad is it? I said , yes it is, it really is! The waiting for a new kidney is they only thing that gave me hope. There were times I wanted to kill myself, because I missed an entire decade of my life, my entire 30's to dialysis. What was hardest, was having the lack of family support, and coming from an abusive family where there is no love, kindness or empathy. I did it by myself and my friends. So I am hardened in many ways. I have a hard time being super empathetic to people who constantly complain about little things. I understand what you mean by saying you had no choice. I didn't either. I don't wish medical torture on anyone. Every little thing is a struggle. Its easier to just be dead sometimes. I wonder how torture victims can relate? We also did not have a choice. Either death or torture. I think the psychology of medical torture is also notable. The anticipation of pain, and not able to get relief.

True but that's not really the way a military interrogation would work. If soldiers or terrorists get captured then they're legitimately going to want to know who they are, what they're doing, what they know ect. They're unlikely to ask them yes or no questions and ask them open ended. So for example they're not going to say "are you Delta?" In case it's sas and if it's sas then you're more likely to be dealing with the UK. Then you'd want to know why is the UK sending SF to your country? Are they part of a coalition task force? If so who?

Hes not telling you any thing new...hes talking about old, like decades old techniques. (traffic light system, only one older is Big 6) hes actually very good at distracting away from key information...he keeps redirecting her away from sensitive stuff with his stories.

You can literally search "what happens in SERE school" and get about the same info.

I don’t know about that. The way he talks and answers the questions, it all sounds like he’s only saying things that are allowed to be said. He never really got into any crazy details about anything. It felt like he was saying enough to answer the questions, but kept it vague enough that he didn’t give anything important away

Torture will absolutely make you say whatever lie your interrogator wants to hear. Led to SO many wild goose chases and wastes of time and resources. The FBI warned them it wouldn't work.

I just retired from the US Army, having spent the last 16 years as a HUMINT soldier. He was right when he said you must be a good actor. You have to be sincere and empathetic, then really hard-hearted and cold, and be able to switch back and forth at will. You need to be able to "read" whomever you're interrogating and know when they are being truthful or not. Much of what we do is classified and most of our FM's ( field manuals) are classified as well. 35M is really the best job in the US Army.

So what you did with your life was illegally invade countries that never attacked us to torture people for information and you are proud of this? I know you all any resistors "insurgents" but they are really just the people who live there and, Iraq & Afghanistan aren't al Qaeda. Now add to that the fact that the people who comprised the Bush 43-44 had wrote an open letter stating they wanted to invaded & occupy 7 countries for the sake u.s. hegemony but they thought the u.s. population would not support the wars unless they experienced another Pearl Harbor type event..... It was the same countries we invaded in the "war on terror" but they wrote that open letter in 1999, then Bush was able to contest the election results based on a pretend problem in Florida where his brother was governor and when congress asked the senate president to rule against Bush he repeatedly said "This motion is over, next order of business.", that was Al Gore. The next year they got the war they wanted after they staged a false flag attack, the exact scenario the CIA had tried to sell to JFK called PROJECT: NORTHWOOD....... You know we killed 6,000,000 people in the "war on terror" and it was all about control and making rich people richer.

as chiasmatic and likeable as this guy is, that's what makes him truly dangerous and effective at his role. that quote springs to mind, and im paraphrasing here 'we sleep well at night because rough men are ready to commit violence in the night on out behalf'

Who wasn't somewhat disappointed that when she asking about switching between interrogator Ian and normal Ian, he didn't let loose a terrifying barrage of vocal violence? Then switch back to smiling, calm Ian.

Brother has that look in his eyes where he would leave a family barbeque for about 15 minutes to go and "extract" information from someone and come back like nothing happened.

Ian definitely has the chops to do it. As lovely as he is, I did always feel that while watching this he could flip that switch at any moment. He is incredibly believable as that guy who could rip your throat out if you give him the wrong answer.
