In the US, a former military man Tim Kennedy put himself to torture in order to support the candidacy of Gina has Haspel for the post of Director of the CIA, which is accused of involvement in the torture of terrorists, reports the Hill.
On his page in Facebook Kennedy has published a 41-minute video in which his friends simulates drowning by pouring out his mouth and nose and asked various questions.
“We did it yesterday for almost 45 minutes. Watered every time from 10 seconds to a minute. You can try to hold your breath, but water accumulates in the sinuses and flowing down the eyes and nose. That’s all. It’s not torture,” he wrote on Twitter.

Kennedy said that his actions were not an attempt to demonstrate a veneer of bravery.
“I just wanted to show what it is really. It’s just nonsense,” said he.
