It's not an acronym so much as an attempt on their part to pretend torture was acceptable.Yes, when I was active duty, every part of our normal day to day conversation was laced with acronyms and command specific vernacular. Outsiders could not understand a thing we said.Yeah, I said something about that out loud last night in my kitchen. "You know the government has gone batshit crazy when they invent an acronym for torture."Maybe the century.
EIT.
Mind boggling.
That is what they do. One of the most amusing, at least to me, was when we used the acronym BITE for built in test equipment, they came up with NIBBLE, normalized interrogation of black box line equipment.
That is actually my point. When our government has normalized torture to the point of making up an acronym for it, we have become exceedingly morally bankrupt.
