SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico - Female interrogators tried to break Muslim detainees at the U.S. prison camp in Guantanamo Bay by sexual touching, wearing miniskirts and thong underwear and in one case smearing a Saudi man’s face with fake menstrual blood, according to an insider’s written account.

A draft manuscript obtained by the Associated Press is classified as secret pending a Pentagon review for a planned book that details ways the U.S. military used women as part of tougher physical and psychological interrogation tactics to get terror suspects to talk.

It’s the most revealing account so far of interrogations at the secretive detention camp, where officials say they have halted some controversial techniques.

“I have really struggled with this because the detainees, their families and much of the world will think this is a religious war based on some of the techniques used, even though it is not the case,” the author, former Army Sgt. Erik R. Saar, 29, told AP.

Meanwhile over in San Francisco people are paying big money for that kind of treatment.

What's the matter? Doesn't anyone want to admit they work for AP.

does AP know how stupid they look when they write stories like this. What is the point, to try to outrage the "Christian Right". They are to busy trying to get this stuff off of prime time TV.

To me it sounds like they are fighting a religious.

In a related story, the past President formerly known as Bill Clinton has gone public with his conversion to Islam. "I need to feel your pain..." said Willie bin Bubba.

I must be Atilla the Hun or something, but personally, I can't see anything wrong with this; or rubber hoses, branding irons, or the chinese water torture for that matter.

Strange--it didn't occur to the interrogators to threaten to cut their heads off...
