So now we know what qualifies as torture at Gitmo.

An accused enemy combatant held at Guantanamo Bay told a military hearing he was physically as well as mentally tortured there by having to read a newsletter full of 'crap,' being forced to use unscented deodorant and shampoo and having to play sports with a ball that would not bounce.

Majid Khan of Pakistan denied any connection to Al Qaeda and said he was tortured and his family hounded by U.S. authorities, according to a redacted transcript released Tuesday by the Pentagon.

Khan told an April 15 hearing called to determine whether he was rightly classified as an "enemy combatant" that he also had his baby pictures taken from him, that cleaners left marks on his cell walls and that detainees have no DVD players or other entertainment.

At one point, Kan said he wrote on his walls, "stop torturing me, I need my mails, newspaper and my lawyer."

So now hat we know what the allegations are, I think we can see that the claims of inhumane conditions at Guantanamo Bay are nothing but a load of crap from enemies of this country and their fellow travelers. Call me when we start cutting off heads like this jihadi pig's fellow terrorists do -- maybe I'll start to care then. In the mean time, Majid Khan and the rest can do without Grey Poupon and other such indignities.
