The Gitmo sex story is the soft porn verson of the hard core truth
Edited on Fri Jan-28-05 07:42 PM by Minstrel Boy
Look at the source, and compare what it says to what a released Brit detainee described last March.

Today's story is taken from an "insider's rough manuscript...classified as secret pending a Pentagon review."

And its "shocking" revelation:

Female interogators "wearing skimpy clothing such as a miniskirt and thong underwear and in one case smearing a Saudi man's face with fake menstrual blood."

Compare that to what Jamal al-Harith told The Mirror last March at Gitmo:

Prisoners who had never seen an "unveiled" woman before would be forced to watch as the hookers touched their own naked bodies.

The men would return distraught. One said an American girl had smeared menstrual blood across his face in an act of humiliation.

Jamal said: "I knew of this happening about 10 times. It always seemed to be those who were very young or known to be particularly religious who would be taken away.


I don't think we're seeing contents of the "classified manuscript" without the Pentagon's approval. And I think we're seeing it, because it's the whitewashed PG version.

1. What are these guards...
Edited on Fri Jan-28-05 07:48 PM by Coastie for Truth
in a previous post I hinted that some of the MP's and MI-types might themselves have serious psychological problems--

So we can't have gay Arabic translators -- but we can have "domination-submission" and "sado-masochist" guards and interrogators.

Have spend time in the military -- given me gays over "domination-submission" and "sado-masochist" types.

2. This was in the British press
... but the American media elites were too busy going ga-ga over Janet Jackson's breast to pay much attention.
