UPDATE: The Ethical Adman reports that this campaign used images of its subjects without permission. Original post below:

To prove its point that people undergoing torture will tell anyone anything (thus negating it as a viable intelligence-gathering technique), Amnesty International is pairing images of beaten, battered famous people with extremely out-of-character quotes they would say only under extreme duress.

For example, Iggy Pop's jacked-up face (which isn't too far from how he looks after concerts) appears to say, "The future of rock 'n' roll is Justin Bieber."
