CIA Torture Techniques Allegedly Used at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz”
The CIA employed the Confinement Box, a horrific torture method, in post-9/11 black sites, subjecting detainees like Abu Zubaydah to prolonged periods in coffin-sized boxes. Now, a similar practice has been identified at the Alligator Alcatraz detention facility in Florida, where migrants are confined in small, cage-like structures as punishment, reminiscent of the CIA’s methods. This mirroring of torture techniques, stemming from the lack of accountability for the original architects, raises concerns about the persistence of inhumane treatment and the need for immediate criminal investigations into such practices. The article connects this to mass surveillance and its potential for abuse in Palestine, and the cover-up of civilian killings.
