Program for Survivors of Torture, has treated "a number of people" who had been subjected to forms of near-asphyxiation, including "water-boarding," in which a suspect is bound and immersed in water until he nearly drowns. |

| | St. Veronica - From the Question Box |
| | 19 (CWNews.com) - Cardinal Renato Martino's rebuke of the United States for its treatment of Saddam Hussein after his capture was his personal opinion and not necessarily the view of Pope John Paul, a senior Vatican official told Associated Press on Friday. | | | Cardinal Martino, the president of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, during a news conference introducing the Pope's annual message for the World Day of Peace, responded to a reporter's question by saying that broadcast of the images of Saddam Hussein undergoing medical examination was inappropriate. | | | "I feel pity at seeing this destroyed man, treated like a cow having his teeth checked," he said at the time, adding that it "seems illusory to hope that it (Saddam's arrest) will repair the drama and damage of the defeat against humanity which war always is." |
