The proponents of the suffering memo believe that waterboarding was an acceptable interrogation technique because They claimed that the president had the authority to do whatever he thought necessary to get information in the global war on terrorism.

<h3> What is waterboarding ?</h3>
  • Waterboarding is a form of torture in which water is poured over a cloth protecting the face and breathing passages of an immobilized captive, causing the person to experience the feeling of drowning.
  • In the most common method of waterboarding, the captive's face is coated with cloth or some other thin material and immobilized on their back at an angle of 10 to 20 degrees
  • Torturers pour water onto the face over the breathing passages, generating an almost instantaneous gag reflex and creating a drowning sensation for the captive
