U.S. Army Intelligence and Interrogation Handbook: The Official Guide on Prisoner Interrogation

U.S. Army intelligence relies on the tactics of intelligence interrogation to assess and combat enemy forces, but recent events at the Abu Ghraib prison in Iraq revealed violations of the rules of intelligence interrogation and human rights, officially codified in the U.S. Army Intelligence and Interrogation Handbook. Herein are the precise and regulated procedures and principles of interrogation, which must be followed to conduct meaningful interrogations and prevent violations that led to the questionable tactics of prison soldiers at Abu Ghraib.
The U.S. Army Intelligence and Interrogation Handbook features the established procedures of the U.S. Army to conduct intelligence interrogations,
under the constraints established by the Hague and Geneva Conventions, and the Uniform Code of Military Justice. This invaluable resource lays out clear guidelines for the interrogation process, the role of the interrogator, handling captured enemy documents, and the direction and supervision of intelligence interrogation. It also includes information about the relationship between interrogation and its operational environment, debriefing strategy, and the construction and use of joint interrogation facilities. Principles and tactics include:
* Principles of interrogation * Capabilities and limitations of interrogators * Interrogator training * Intelligence cycle * Screening sources * Counterintelligence * Command, tasking, support, and interrogator relationships * Components of strategic intelligence * And many more important devices used and tested in actual military operations.
