That this House notes the use of recorded music by United States interrogators, involving the incessant playing of high volume music in order to break resistance through sleep deprivation and exposure to lyrics that prisoners would find culturally offensive; further notes this practice has been acknowledged by the US's Psychological Operations Company; defends the human rights of all human beings as laid out by the Geneva Convention; and therefore believes that torture, including this practice of using music, is inhumane and a breach of these rights; further believes that the particular practice of using music as an instrument of torture is an infringement of creator's rights; supports the Musicians' Union's principled protest against such a practice; and urges the Government to exert whatever available diplomatic pressure to end the practice of torture in all countries.
