Issue Report: Enhanced interrogation techniques

Support

An April 24-25, 2009 Gallup Poll “55% of Americans believe in retrospect that the use of the interrogation techniques was justified, while only 36% say it was not. Notably, a majority of those following the news about this matter ‘very closely’ oppose an investigation and think the methods were justified.”[1]
