UNITED States interrogators at Guantanamo Bay subjected a suspected terrorist to abusive and degrading treatment, forcing him to wear a bra, dance with another man and behave like a dog, military investigators said yesterday.
They recommended that Major-General Geoffrey Miller be reprimanded for failing to oversee his interrogation of the 9/11 suspect at the base in Cuba.
But General Bantz Craddock, commander of US Southern Command, said he overruled their recommendation and will instead refer the matter to the army's inspector general.
Gen Craddock concluded that Gen Miller did not violate any US laws or policies, according to officials familiar with the report.
Investigators described their findings before the Senate armed services committee yesterday. They were looking into allegations by FBI agents who say they witnessed abusive interrogation techniques at the Guantanamo Bay prison for terrorist suspects.
One suspect was Mohamed al-Qahtani, a Saudi who tried to enter the US in August 2001, but was turned away at Orlando airport.
Mohamed Atta, the ringleader of the 11 September hijackers, was in the airport at the same time.
The committee heard that interrogators told him his mother and sisters were prostitutes, forced him to wear a bra, forced him to wear a thong on his head, told him he was homosexual and said that other prisoners knew it.
Sounds like nothing different from what you can see on a typical street corner in Downtown San Francisco to me.
Ive heard that those underwires can be a mother.
I'm thinking that making them act like a pig might be more appropriate.
I just had an argument with a moral relativist, so this was a real laugh for me.
BTW, how come no daily updates on the health and fitness of each prisoner? A column in each day's paper, "Meet The Terrorist", with updates on if they're regular and getting their daily backrub. Are they getting good movies? I mean, come on, this is important stuff, let's go.
Not the thong, please, I beg you, not the thong!!! I look fat in a thong.
Come on, Ali. You know you enjoyed it....
Will the gay lobby complain about this being considered abusive behavior? Or will there be a rise in gay military enlistment?
I think the menu should consist soley of ribs and chops. Don't like it, don't eat it and starve.
Gitmo at Gitmo!
(also note Teddy's open fly, down below the booze-gut obstructed field of vision.)
Yah but did they get another inmate drunk, dim the lights and let him loose ?
Now that would have been a true torture.
Was he pendulous?
Are they playing volleyball???????
"The committee heard that interrogators told him his mother and sisters were prostitutes, forced him to wear a bra, forced him to wear a thong on his head, told him he was homosexual and said that other prisoners knew it."
This sounds like a walk in the park compared to my fraternity hazing. Actually it sounds nicer than my typical weekend. Yo mama is such a 'ho that....
Can't tell the boys from the girls.......
I can't stop laughing-- "Clap"--- LOL!! I swear the one in the black thong is a man with a woman's head.
