For people who say the toture is like a frat prank

"Detainees were beaten with a broom handle and one was sodomized with "a chemical light and perhaps a broom stick," the report said, according to the magazine."

If being held by enemy soldiers hooded, naked, beaten, and sodomized isn't torture, then the word has little meaning.

1. Frat hazing *is* Torture.

Which is why it is illegal.

If someone had the temerity to whip that "frat prank" thing out in front of me, I would be hard-pressed to not take my sneaker off and slap the nits off their head.

That is some intellectually punk shit. I wonder if the SS thought they were up to frat pranks?

Well, at least our torture isn't as bad as Saddam's was. And our rape rooms are smaller and we only use broomsticks. Our WMDs wouldn't be as scary as Saddam's WMDs that he got from us if Saddam still had had some. And he used them on his own people! We just used ours on other people for no reason. We haven't censored as much news as Saddam did. And the mass graves we caused in Fallujah don't have as many dead people. So there!
