<p>The U.K. Guardian has <a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,,1874823,00.html">obtained a list</a> of seven interrogation techniques that the CIA would like to use to interrogate al Qaeda terror suspects.</p>

<p>They are:</p>

<ul>
  • induced hypothermia
  • forcing suspects to stand for prolonged periods
  • sleep deprivation
  • a technique called "the attention grab" where a suspect's shirt is forcefully seized
  • the "attention slap" or open hand slapping that hurts but does not lead to physical damage
  • the "belly slap"
  • sound and light manipulation[/LIST]

    <p>Color me unimpressed. Throw in copious amounts of alcohol and some co-eds, and this sounds more like my college years than torture.</p>



    • some very pretty pictures to undermine the seriousness of the issue.
    there's a big, and legal difference, between doing something voluntarily/for fun and being forced to do it. Or should I wait for the thread where you say a rape victim is whining because millions of people do the same thing for fun all the time?
    Or that murder and suicide are the same thing because the end result is identical?

    Gee, even without going to law school i can tell the difference.



    So, Ray, you think it's serious and WRONG to slap a poor widdle terrorist who may know when and where an attack is planned to kill our troops or US citicens? This is what Sen. Whatshisname (I'm sure someone here remembers) Meant when he said Democrats were more interested in protecting Terrorists than in protecting Americans.

    I'm sure G-Mans point wasn;t to deny the difference between volentry and involentary actions, but rather to demonstrate how mild these techniques are when you consider they're being done to terrorists caught on the battle field.
