SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- Female interrogators tried to break Muslim detainees at the U.S. prison camp in Guantanamo Bay by sexual touching, wearing a miniskirt 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.

Saar said he witnessed about 20 interrogations and about three months after his arrival at the remote U.S. base he started noticing "disturbing" practices.
One female civilian contractor used a special outfit that included a miniskirt, thong underwear and a bra during late-night interrogations with prisoners, mostly Muslim men who consider it taboo to have close contact with women who aren't their wives.
Beginning in April 2003, "there hung a short skirt and thong underwear on the hook on the back of the door" of one interrogation team's office, he writes. "Later I learned that this outfit was used for interrogations by one of the female civilian contractors ... on a team which conducted interrogations in the middle of the night on Saudi men who were refusing to talk."

If true, it is stupid. The "24" method is the only way to go.
The average American is thrilled to hear this...believe me.
Bull. I bet they break in a minute this way.

Porn Star? Is so, would she keep it hush, hush? Maybe she'd save it for the memoirs and cash in then.
My God. The next thing you know they'll build a Hooter's there and force them to drink alcohol.
I want to see the '60 Minutes' expose on this one.
I'm at a loss for words.
Could be - if the chick in the thong looked like Michael Moore....
Or Roseanne Barr
So what did they do? Show them their buttocks?
Is it a good idea to give, via an interrogation method, fuel to the fires of anti Western propaganda? If we are trying to say, "we of the Western Judeo-Christian tradition are serious about this war," then I think that the use of something that speaks of hedonism is, while possibly effective for certain interrogations, a really bad idea in the bigger picture.

'If this be treason, make the most of it.'
Our treatment of legitimate prisoners:

I think I'm pretty comfortable with the world watching this one.
Just how did AP get this manuscript that's supposedly classified pending Pentagon review?
I was thinking the same thing when I read the article! WTH is going on with the Pentagon????????
They will talk their ass off.
WTH is going on with the Pentagon????????
It's part of a deliberate coverup. They leaked the MS as misdirection, to keep us from finding out these 'female interrogators' are charging the DOD $1000/hr.
Dodds missed her calling… writing fiction is her strong suit. I don't believe her or this "translator". False claims of so-called torture is a favorite ploy of the anti-war, hate America first crowd.
In a word… bullsheet.
you are so wrong for posting that image so close to suppertime
Only if she's an employee of Jack Kevorkian.
