Dude, that was in 1979?
The US instituted the Shah who had Savak carry out torture etc. operation throughout his reign. The USA also gave 'pointers' to Egypt when it comes to torture.
Pretty big article on Wikipedia about the subject.
Torture and the United States.
Also, what they talk about in the article, about shooting a gun in the next room and telling the person that they shot a person. That's also typical stuff from the School of Americas. They used to play a tape of women and children screaming in the next room and tell the person that it's his wife and children being tortured/killed. This stuff went on for years in South America and also in the Middle East, in nations that the US had relations to at some point in time.
