Aaawww, C'mon!!!

The U.K.'s Channel 4 will soon broadcast a new TV show called "The Guantanamo Guidebook." Participants will, among other things, be subjected to sleep deprivation, extreme temperatures, "mild" physical contact as well as (drum-roll please) periods of enforced nudity and--yes, that's right--religious and sexual humiliation.

According to the article published in The Guardian,"The programme exposed volunteers, three of whom are Muslim, to 48 hours of 'torture lite'...The programme is part of a four-pronged investigation into the modern-day use of torture practices, in and outside the Cuban island base which Amnesty International has described as an 'icon of lawlessness'."

The other three prongs of Channel 4's investigations will be entitled "murder-lite," "rape-lite" and "crawling-around-in-one's own-feces-lite."

Too much?
