FBI Guantanamo Bay Inquiry is out~

From my conversations with americans I expect to find descriptions on the lavish living of the detainees, how they were fed gourmet food every day and how Amnesty International are biased:
Federal Bureau of Investigation - Freedom of Information Privacy Act


Seriously though, here we get confirmation from the FBI on it so no denying it. Personally I find it disgusting and the "staggering" results so far show america is not exactly succeeding with the tactic. America is certainly giving us a nation to look up to, this is how we should treat american criminals, right?

Remember this isnt the official policy but merely the idiots doing things on their own in most cases. Idiots have already been thrown out of GITMO for the menstration bs, and lapdance.

I wonder what kind of encouragement they get from their superiours if they think behaviour like that is acceptable.

So, they're not paid to think, but they apparently help think up a bunch of elaborate torture schemes? Yeah right.

Our official national policy is torture, so this shouldn't come as a shock.

This always reminds me of the "No True Scotsman" fallacy.

It's always some mavricks fault with things like torture. It's never someone acting on behalf of his superiors. It's never a "true" soldier.

only idiots and sadists would use those methods on the prisoners. Especially with the whole world watching them. And especially when the methods are worthless. Giving a detainee a lapdance is going to get info ?

How would you know, how many terrorists have you questioned? I don't think Jack Bauer would say no to a willing person giving a terrorist a lapdance if it would save lives?

Which do you think are more important, american children not being killed, or one lapdance?

Torture doesnt get you the right answers.

Ask McCain what he gave when he was tortured. He was asked about the names of his fellow officers and he gave them the names of a football team.
