Sadism in the US Military

As I was reading Harper's Weekly Digest, I learned that there are these sadistic torture devices that are "non-lethal" ray gun firing millimeter-wave electromagnetic energy, which penetrates the skin instantly heating water molecules to 130 degrees, The Pentagon has denied that this may be used as a torture device. Regardless of how it is being used, the fact that this exists and potentially could be used in such a way is horrific. What sort of person thinks up this sort of device?

"No one has been able to stand the pain caused by the weapon, known as the "Active Denial System," for more than 3 seconds. The acting high commissioner for human rights said that the American abuses of Iraqi prisoners might qualify as war crimes."
