应该允许军队使用加强的审问技术，比如水刑，来从被怀疑的恐怖分子那里获得信息吗？

9月11日之后，2001恐怖袭击的布什政府授权在世界各地的秘密监禁设施由美国国防部和中央情报局运行使用“强化审讯手段”。授权批准使用的许多技术，包括殴打，在压力位置，蒙头，剥夺睡眠和水刑的结合。 2008年，美国总统奥巴马签署了一项行政命令，禁止由美国军方和中情局使用酷刑。在2016年使用酷刑成为总统竞选期间的话题时，候选人唐纳德·特朗普建议应该针对伊斯兰国使用。折磨的反对者认为，美国不应该实施酷刑，因为它是根据国际法不人道的和非法的。支持者认为，军方不应使用酷刑的预防，如果他们认为它会保持该国的安全。

UN probing reported mass grave on Libya-Tunisia border

The U.N. human rights chief said on Tuesday that his office was following up on reports of a mass grave in the desert along the Libya-Tunisia border, after the bodies of at least 65 migrants were found at another site earlier this year.In a speech, Volker Turk denounced widespread violations against migrants and refugees in Libya, which straddes a dangerous transit route that runs through the Sahara Desert and across the southern Mediterranean.Abuses against migrants were being "perpetrated at scale, with impunity" by both state and non-state actors, Turk said, listing crimes including human trafficking, torture, forced labour, extortion, starvation, detention and mass expulsions."I urge the authorities to respond swiftly to our inquiries, and to investigate these crimes fully," he told the U.N. Human Rights Council in Geneva in a speech addressing Libya's human rights record over the last year.He gave no further details of the suspected identity of the mass grave victims or how the site was found. A spokesperson at Turk's office said: "We have not received information from the authorities but we are continuing to follow up on this."In March, at least 65 bodies of migrants were discovered at a mass grave site in southwest Libya's al-Jahriya valley about 420 km (260 miles) south of Tripoli, the U.N.-affiliated International Organization for Migration said.

It went on like that for a whole day.”The testimonies “clearly indicate a systemic, institutional policy focused on the continual abuse and torture of all Palestinian prisoners held by Israel,” B’Tselem said in its report.The group alleged “frequent acts of severe, arbitrary violence” as well as sexual assault, humiliation and degradation, deliberate starvation and sleep deprivation.The Israeli army told The Telegraph that it “categorically rejects” allegations of systematic abuse, including sexual abuse, in its detention facilities.
