Eh? Increase Your PM Length

'Tortured' with Rap??
Mon Dec 22,10:04 AM ET Add Oddly Enough - Reuters to My Yahoo!



BEIRUT (Reuters) - Lebanese Mohammed Jaber said he went to Iraq (news - web sites) on a pilgrimage to Muslim holy sites, he ended up being "tortured" with loud rap music by U.S. troops suspicious he might be a foreign fighter against their occupation.



Jaber said an Iraqi taxi driver handed him and three friends over to U.S. troops for $100 each in April apiece as fighters for ousted Iraqi President Saddam Hussein (news - web sites).


"They asked us why we were there and if we came to fight them. But we said we came only to visit the holy sites in Kerbala," he told Reuters.


"They didn't torture us physically but they did psychologically by raising the volume of rap music all day until it became unbearable and by withholding food," he said.


But Jaber said he kept one secret from his captors, fearing the treatment could get worse.


"I mean I like rap, just imagine them playing jazz."


U.S.-led forces in Iraq freed Jaber and sent him and seven other Arab detainees home on Saturday.

Suffering from ads?

You're assuming the U.S. soldiers were white when, in fact, a good number of them are white, black, Latino, female and so on.

I hate rap music, but could've survived on jazz, albeit barely.

"Lebanese Mohammed Jaber said he went to Iraq on a pilgrimage to Muslim holy sites, "

In April


Yup, sure makes sense for Mr. Jaber to leave Lebanon and go to Iraq to visit holy sites in the middle of a war. Trying to take advantage of cheap hotel rates, I suppose


More likely this was a jihadi wannabe who got caught, and was lucky to get home, whos whining now. Tough luck, Jaber.

Should have been naked dancing girls. The fear and guilt this woud have induced would have been unbearable. Just imagine the pain of keeping your eyes open staring dumbfounded! Oooh, the torture.
