From Elaine Monaghan in Washington
SCANTILY-CLAD female interrogators taunted devout Muslim detainees at Guantanamo Bay by touching themselves and using sexually humiliating methods, according to an account by a former translator at the camp released yesterday by the Associated Press.
The report was based on nine draft pages from a manuscript for a planned book on how the US military used women to get terrorist suspects to talk, AP said.
The Pentagon has classified the manuscript as secret but the news agency said that it had confirmed the authenticity of the pages it obtained with their author, former Sergeant Erik R. Saar.
story thanks, conscientious
~GRRRLL POWER!
Only in America? Are there any other countries in the world using female soldiers in the war against terror (sic) this way? How do the Israelis use their women soldiers? The Mossad?
Too bad the military doesn't acknowledge homosexuality; that could be another interrogation method.
How about paedophile special forces? Use the prisoners' kids or any young Muslim children as leverage.
The US Military has always been the biggest influence on social change in America. It was like a shot of adrenalin for the Civil Rights Movement. I wonder what kind of social movements we should expect from the men and women who are fighting this war?
(Sexual sadism, it's not just for men anymore.)
