psychologists lend a hand with torture


The top U.S. psychology association [American Psychological Association] has apologized for the group's collusion with the U.S. Defense Department and the CIA to issue guidelines that supported torture, including waterboarding and sleep deprivation, following the September 11 terrorist attacks on the country 14 years ago.
Sorta reminds me of the U.S. Supreme Court colluding with the internment of Japanese-Americans during World War II.

Is there anything so good that it doesn't fuel bad fallout ... or vice versa?
