"BAGHDAD (Reuters) - An Iraqi student who said he was held with prisoners in an Interior Ministry bunker described on Wednesday how he was hung blindfolded in excruciating positions and called a "Sunni dog" by his Shi'ite interrogators.

He was speaking after more than 170 detainees were discovered in the bunker on Sunday night during a raid by U.S. troops who were searching for a missing teenage boy."

"M.I., a Sunni, said his ordeal began one night in late August, when Interior Ministry forces showed up in police vehicles outside his family's house and detained him without charge along with his brother and cousin."

""They hung me from my bound hands from a ceiling hook and whipped me with metal cables.""

""They put me in a small cell at first where there were bloody clothes from another prisoner. Then I was in a room with about 100 others. Sometimes they used drills on people.""

""They put me in a barrel full of cold water during questioning," said M.I. "They also electrocuted me."

Each prisoner was given half a loaf of bread on a typical day and allowed access to the toilet every two days, he said.

"We would rush to the toilet and drink from the tap because sometimes they would only give us water in soda bottle caps three times a day,""

"he said life was so tough that prisoners prayed for a transfer to the notorious U.S.-run Abu Ghraib prison"

Two words, people: LIBERAL MEDIA. Get used to it - these people will make up anything they want, and people will buy it. Just to somehow legitimatize their rabid anti-Americanism. It's sad, really, that they need to fabricate news like this just to perpetuate their mindless prejudices. These people make me sick. Their goals are no less than the destruction of the Western World and the ascendance of a global Islamofascist regime.

Hey, don't interrupt a good old fashioned anti-liberal rant over facts! What are you, some sort of fact nazi? I was enjoying that. Especially the big words like: "ascendance of a global Islamofascist regime". That phrase is gold!

lol "Liberal Media"

The thing about John Kerry is that he flip-flops.

Wouldn't a LIBERAL media favor SOCIALISM? What we really have is a MUSLIM media, that is if they really want an Islamofascist regime.

I think they want readers, money and cookies. And possibly to get some lovin' from the opposite sex.

Western Civ seems to be destroying itself without "Libral Media"'s help anyway.
