Do-It-Yourself Waterboarding

At the Supreme Court
Activists protest the Guantánamo base openings in Washington in 2007. Waterboarding takes many forms, but it is generally described as a torture in which an immobilized victim's head is inclined downward, with a towel or cloth covering the face. Water is then poured over the mouth and nose, creating the sensation of drowning.
