Other techniques included a puppet show mocking al-Qaeda and taping photos of September 11 victims to detainees' trousers

How cruel! Impeach Bush!

What they ought to do is tape pictures of the Moslem victims to these jackass's trousers. Of course they'd have an excuse for that too.

If there was any puppet sex involved in the show, would that be against the Geneva Convention?

Here's how the anti-Bush logic works:
It's not that all Gitmo detainees are INNOCENT,
it's that ONLY THE ONES WE ABUSE ARE INNOCENT,
As though this Administration has an unerring instinct to FIND and SINGLE OUT
FOR BAD TREATMENT , ONLY the innocent. Chew on that logic for a while.
One can easily transfer this conceit to the war in Iraq, where the same thing is assumed.

To quote James Lileks :

According to the log, his handlers at one point perform a puppet show
“satirizing the detainee’s involvement with al-Qaeda.”

So Doug is part of the torture crew, then. From the ever-prescient Pythons:

Vercotti: Doug (takes a drink) Well, I was terrified.
Everyone was terrified of Doug. I've seen grown men pull their own heads off rather than see Doug.
Even Dinsdale was frightened of Doug.

2nd Interviewer: What did he do?

Vercotti: He used... sarcasm.
He knew all the tricks, dramatic irony, metaphor, bathos, puns, parody, litotes and... satire.
He was vicious.
