| − | '''Walling''' is an enhanced interrogation technique, one of many developed by the [[CIA]] and other agencies to assist in the [[War on Terror]] during the [[George W. Bush]] administration. The technique involves throwing a suspect against a false wall. This induces fear in the suspect by making him think that he is going to get hit by a real wall. Critics, especially liberals, decry this method as "torture" even though it has been determined by legal experts and doctors not to constitute torture. The detainee even wears a special collar to eliminate the possibility of whiplash during walling. | + | '''Walling''' is an enhanced interrogation technique, one of many developed by the [[CIA]] and other agencies to assist in the [[War on Terror]] during the [[George W.
