| More "Spot The Irony" Former Guantánamo Bay interrogators refuse to answer questions. |
| A high-level military investigation into complaints by F.B.I. agents about the abuse of detainees at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, concluded in a report released Wednesday that their treatment was sometimes degrading but did not qualify as inhumane or as torture.
[F.B.I. Investogators] spoke of "torture techniques" and described detainees forced into uncomfortable positions for 18 to 24 hours at a time or left to soil themselves. The report also said investigators could not corroborate an incident recounted by an F.B.I. agent who said she saw a detainee shackled to the floor for hours, soiling himself and pulling out his hair. [A military spokesman] said that about 10 former interrogators could not be questioned as they were no longer in the military and declined to answer questions voluntarily.
