The interrogation
Marie stumbled as the guards pushed her into the amphitheater, an old -Lecture hall at the School of Science, which was now used by the occupying forces. She saw a tall, thin Capitan standing at the lectern and in the curved rows of seats that rise around the small stage, maybe 40 or 50
uniformed soldiers, including some women. The Capitan greeted his course participants: “Welcome to the course on modern survey techniques. They are all designated for special assignments in their units and in military intelligence, so I wish you every success with the practical part of this training. These prisoner,“ announced the captain from the lectern,
“Is the daughter of an identified insurgent, a terrorist who has resisted. Getting them to speak is our job. It may be that she can help us find her father or identify other terrorists. "The Capitan turned to the prisoner and said: "Marie, where can we find your father?"
The prisoner was obviously frightened. "I don't know." "When was the last time you saw your father?" "Three months ago when he said goodbye to me while I was driving to university."
"She thought she was safe abroad, but it was easy to kidnap her and move her to a place that is under our control. Marie, when was the last time you spoke to your father? "
"I spoke to him on the phone six days ago." "What did you talk about?"
"He wished me a happy 18th birthday." "Anything else?"
“He said mother is safe, but he couldn't tell me where she is. He's proud of it
defend our country." "She's telling the truth. We intercepted the call. Marie, tell us about your father. What are his hobbies? " "Hobbies? I dont know. Even when I lived at home, I never saw much of him.” “ You see, even if a prisoner seems honest and cooperative, she can lie. We will use means of coercion according to the manual, the questions, make them more docile in order to encourage their cooperation. How should we start? "A hand went into a back row, a woman." Yes, soldier? "" What if she is innocent and has no information of value. Shouldn't she be released?" "Soldier, releasing her would allow her to pass information on our operations to the insurgents. As long as we have her, she's a hostage, and that could keep her father from attacking our forces. "
"But, sir, if the insurgents find out we have them, it might not motivate them fight harder? Don't they assume that she is as good as dead or at least dishonored?"
“Soldier, you think too much. This is best left to the higher ranks. We have about 60,000 in our prisons and, to be realistic, maybe not more than one in five, even one in ten, is a real enemy fighter, but we don't know which, so that we assume that they are all candidates for what the manual describes as "deserving special attention". Have you read the manual, soldier?"
"Yes, sir, of course, sir." "What kind of special attention do we give to such goals?"
"Sir, the general aim is to secure their cooperation. Since prisoners have been brainwashed to believe in their cause, we need to dismantle misconceptions about national sovereignty and reverse their conditioning. If they're not cooperative, the goal is to break their self-identity, self-esteem, and ultimately their belief system." "Very good. You, Sergeant, in the second row, what should we do first?"
"First, sir, we have to stop calling her by her first name, because it builds her self-esteem." What should we call her?" "For a woman? How about 'bitch', sir?"
"Yes. And the next step? You, private." The captain pointed to a man in the front row.
"Humiliation, sir. Force her, let her do humiliating things. But better than forcing her to undress is to get her to do it on her own to show her lack of control over herself . " "Very good, private. Please demonstrate."
The approximately 1.73 m tall person, perhaps 68 kg, got up and approached Maria, who was standing there in her casual clothes. "Okay, bitch, take off your clothes."
The prisoner stood trembling. "I can't tell you anything. Don't do it, don't force me to expose myself to all these strangers." He hit her hard in the face. She held her face in her hand and stood crying. "I said take off your clothes. Take off everything."
