Guantanamo Reality Show
It was only a matter of time - get ready for a reality show about Guantanamo where the participants play detainees.
Volunteers on a reality TV show have been subjected to sexual humiliation and physical cruelty in a copy of the Guantanamo Bay military camp. The seven men, including three Muslims, endured painful stress positions, sleep deprivation and extreme temperatures.
Scenes for the programme, The Guantanamo Guidebook, were filmed in a warehouse in East London which had been fitted with cages, interrogation rooms and surveillance equipment. Presented by Jon Snow, it examined how they stood up to 'torture-lite' after being left in the hands of a team of former U.S. military interrogators for 48 hours.
At the beginning, some of the particpants supported the Bush administrations treatment of detainees. That changed, after they were subjected to similar treatment.:
....after being subjected to religious and sexual humiliation and forced nudity, two of them vomited, another soiled himself and one dropped out after seven hours due to the onset of hypothermia.
