#2 I read the whole article early last night. It's spinning bullshit mostly. I imagine he has not been an ideal prisoner and has had to be restrained more than once. Much of what he says he "saw" is hear say and worthless no matter what. No matter who witnessed it the affidavit is worthless. It's also more supposed "leakage." Their is a full court press in the international right now to portray the US military man as a NAZI stormtrooper. This is just part of it.

I suggest they call the Major from section 9 in to probe him. :p

#3 This bull%*#@ is straight out of the AQ playbook dealing with resistance techniques. If any asshats from the media took time to read it (I had a translated copy before it hit the internets), they would know that the claims of abuse at Gitmo are part of the enemies game plan. To any media tools - tell me where you want a copy sent and I'll mail it to you - from Bangkok no less.

#4 Can't the Reuter's editors get anything right? The corrected copy:
Hicks Offered To Be A Hooker At Gitmo
An Australian terror suspect has offered his services as a prostitute in a continuation of his Islamic duties learned in Pakistan, where he dutifully bent over five times a day for his Learned Elders of Islam. Hicks was quoted as saying, "At first I was afraid, but soon became a labor of love."

JEWINDUIST? Give an ignoramus 5 minutes at the cybercafe and he thinks he's a cunning linguist. Go back to drawing figures in the dirt.

#5 To the first poster , caps lock is located near your little finger on your left hand , and a spell checker can be located here .

I also suggest a course in winning friends and influencing people along with maybe one in anger management .

#6 MacNeils and Ed,
Calm down, I think we have here a rare post
by a true Neanderthal (of the Borrisoid type).
Just lean back and relish each misspelled word.
Chortling is permitted.

#8 At the risk of stating the blinding f***king obvious. Where do you find a hooker in a US military base completely cutoff from the surrounding civilian population.

#12 Of course, Frank, that's the traditional way to learn to be light on your feet. *obligatory mutter of 'What do they teach young people nowadays?!?'*

#13 I think our #1 poster's final point is actually a very good one. "IF YOU DO NOT LIKE AMERICA GO BACK TO YOUR SHITTY COUNTRY"

#14 Alas, once again I have been left out of the loop due to the silencing of a troll. I seem to always come into these discussions late after the comments have been removed and miss out on all the fun. But then again, its always the same line, just different spelling and punctuation.

#16 I'd be pissed if we didn't pound this asshole's head into the pavement. Heck if getting a prostitute in helps turn these idiot's I'm all for it. Prostitutes cheap, lives expensive methinks.

#17 phil_b,

Put a military post on an oil platform in the middle of the ocean and hookers would still be able to infiltrate it. Hell, they'd probably be there before the first troops arrived waiting to ambush them. I'm pretty sure that Spec Forces are required to study their tactics.

As the story goes, Gen. Hooker didn't even bother trying to get rid of prostitutes, he just organized them in true military fashion.

That's not misspelling. That's drool affecting the keyboard.

#20 Of course it was torture. They threatened to have a woman touch him in evil ways.

#21 I'm still sceptical. Co-incidentally I have been to the nearest city and driven around this part of Cuba. Gitmo wasn't even marked on the Cuban map. Can someone who has been to Gitmo confirm (or otherwise) that Cuban civilians don't get into the base.

#22 driven around this part of Cuba

#23 get in? there's mine fields on both sides of the fence, both designed to keep Cubans from getting in, hence my snarky stilleto shoes comment
