NAZIS' BREAK INTO GITMO AND FIDDLE WITH AIRCONDITIONING
First Senator Turbin Durbin says this.
On one occasion, the air conditioning had been turned down so far and the temperature was so cold in the room, that the barefooted detainee was shaking with cold. . . . On another occasion, the [air conditioner] had been turned off, making the temperature in the unventilated room well over 100 degrees.
If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans [emphasis mine]had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done by Nazis, Soviets in their gulags, or some mad regime--Pol Pot or others--that had no concern for human beings.Then he says this.
I have heard my colleagues and others in the press suggest that I have said our soldiers could be compared to Nazis. I'd say to the Chairman of the Armed Services Committee, I do not even know if the interrogator involved here was an American soldier. I didn't say that at any point. To suggest that I am criticizing American servicemen, I am not. I don't know who is responsible for this.If this is true we need an immediate investigation on why Nazi's are being allowed to break into Gitmo and fiddle with the air-conditioning. I know for a fact that messing with air-conditioning controls is a serious offence so we may be able to jail any of the Nazi trespassers we can catch.
