Freed detainees have made claims of intimidation by dogs, being forced to wear pictures of scantily clad women around their neck, and being kept in isolation for months at a time, in either freezing or boiling temperatures.

THIS is torture? Being forced to wear a page out of a Victoria's Secret catalog?

She said: "We feel that the word 'torture' is a serious abuse of the language when you apply it to what's going on at Gitmo. We're pretty tired of the military-bashing that we see in the news."

It's not a "serious abuse of the language". Call it what it is. It's a propaganda lie.

In another article, one of the detainees was forced to listen to the reading of a Harry Potter book for hours. No kidding.
