US
Secretary of Homeland Security Michael Chertoff has promised
a fair execution for all Guantanamo prisoners accused of
organizing the 9/11 attacks in 2001. He was speaking to
this website after six men including plot mastermind Sheikh
Mohammed were charged.
Their
guilt is to be confirmed by a military court later in the
year.
Confessions
to be heard by the court include edited versions of:
"STOP!
I'm drowning, stop, ahhh, OK I did it, stop...,
oh!..., can I go now?",
"Where
am I? I'm so tired. Oh please let me sleep, yes I did
it, oh, can I go now?" and
"No I didn't do it. No. No. No. You'll never break
me etc etc... OK I did it. No, I mean, Nooooo!"
A
spokesman for the military court told this website:
"We
would never rely on evidence obtained by water boarding
in isolation. Evidence would have to include at least
some sort of confessional sound such as a grunt from either
sleep deprivation or food/water refusal."
"And
anyways, these guys have been hardened by years under
the oppressive regime of Saddam Hussein. We aren't doing
anything that Saddam wouldn't have done."
Apology:
Yesterday we ran a story that claimed that McDonalds fast
food was used in a torture process in Guantanamo Bay. We
wrote that detainees were told to tell the truth or be forced
to eat food from the fast food giant. We also suggested
that this was the reason behind the increase in obseity
amongst detainees at Gitmo. We are happy to confirm that
we have absolutely no idea if this story is true or not,
and as soon as we find out who wrote the story they will
be dealt with under our internal disciplinary procedures.
