Since most cities are chock full of libtards, I’d sacrifice any of them.
I have a good friend who was a USMC scout sniper in Desert Storm who didn’t sleep for 3 months after he got home.
****More than 25 of the CIA’s war-on-terror prisoners were subjected to sleep deprivation for as long as 11 days at a time...****
Poor little babies. Back in the 1960s AM radio disk jockeys would stay awake for long periods of time (11 days) as a publicity stunt.
College kids do this during finals all the time. What’s the big deal?
Did the Red Cross interview Daniel Pearl about his treatment? I forgot, they didn't get a chance, even if they wanted to because the enemy did CUT HIS HEAD OFF!
That's why we have to take back the Congress real soon.
None of the terrorists needed to be subjected to enhanced interrogation. All they had to do was talk and the methods stopped.
.....and their victims will be DEAD for ever!!!!!!!!
I went 48 Hrs with sleep.I was starting to see giant lizards in the middle of the road, which I was cool with because lizards should be run over if they are in the middle of the road anyway, right???
I was kept sitting on a chair, shackled by hands and feet for two to weeks,” said suspected Al Qaeda operative Abu Zubaydah, the first prisoner captured by the CIA, according to the Red Cross report. “If I started to fall asleep, a guard would come and spray water in my face.”

GOOD!!!! Be glad I wasn’t a guard. I probably would have hung you and called it suicide.
And a mint on the pillow.
I did four days once. Like you, I began hallucinating and decided to stop because I worked in a machine shop environment with metal working tools and saws.
But I found it actually got easier to stay awake after day two. Going from day 2 to 3 and then onward to 4 was fairly easy compared to the first 48 hours. It was just the whole not being able to rely on my mind thing that freaked me out. It became difficult to decide what was real and what was not real. I spent a lot of time obsessed with some ants that were getting into my house...
I’m pretty sure I could do longer if I had some time set aside and didn’t have to go to work or drive or anything. But I’ve got better ways to spend my holiday time ;-)
If some researcher wanted to pay me to do it, I’d be happy to accomodate him.
How about a little hand-wringing for their victims and their victims’ families?
I lost more sleep than this during college exam weeks!
Guess the candy a$$ never had to cram for FINALS WEEK....what a whiney limp-wristed POS!
And that’s their “best and brightest”?
I know. I had dental work Friday and the student working on me, (Yes, I am brave and like to pay 1/3 the cost for work, so I let students have a go) she called me a “bad reporter”. I told her that I am not, in fact, a journalist. She explained that I was not reporting pain...when I SHOULD have been reporting a lot more pain.
So, maybe I should get waterboarded for charity.
I hope these prisoners got DENTAL CARE!!!
“And a mint on the pillow.”
Just tell ‘em it’s a poisonous caterpillar and they’ll cry like little girls.
“Whole pot of the stuff at one time. From McDonald’s. Boiling hot.
Delivered via enema.”
Just as long that there’s a warning on the side of the enema...”Danger Coffee is Hot”!
What, am I supposed to cry now? wahhhhhhhhterboarddddingnow.
More than 25 of the CIA’s war-on-terror prisoners were subjected to sleep deprivation for as long as 11 days at a time during the administration of former president George Bush.”
Sounds like spring break in Fort Lauderdale!
