Psychoactive drugs are almost certainly part of Bush's torture routine

by Hazel Burke, Unknown News      October 27, 2007
  On the topic of America's policy on torture, I would like to point out something which has not been much discussed. Early on we heard reports that US prisoners in Guantanamo were given drugs. But what if
in addition to the physical tortures the US has been administering mind-altering substances, like LSD?

Small doses of LSD or whatever the fuck they have developed since the '60s, when combined with water-boarding, wrist-hangings, freezing and ultra-loud Limp Bizkits for long, long hours, would surely "break" a psyche. People "break" on LSD even without torture, so imagine the amplifying effects when administered by infidel enemies!

 
Imagine being blindfolded, stripped naked and freaking on a mix of acid and speed -- while torturers bring out snarling dogs to nibble on your nuts, and intermittently flip the switch to electrify the jumper cables strategically clamped to your flesh.

This is a highly probable situation, in my estimation, because once they have decided to torture people, why not administer psychoactive drugs to speed things up? You heard about Jose Padilla and how he turned out, afraid to even speak to his own defense lawyers for fear of what would happen upon return to his cell -- or later in prison.

Imagine sensory deprivation combined with LSD -- and then torture -- and then more sensory deprivation, and so on ... while not allowing the prisoner to sleep ... for days.

Why wouldn't pathological criminals in high office order these tactics? Especially if they are seeing the torture on TV in real time in the Oval Office (probably jerking off to it, given how creepy Bush and Cheney are...).

We know these guys are really into torturing naked prisoners and doing unspeakable things to them involving dogs and women's panties, so why not imagine that they ordered LSD or more powerful to be used too, just to make the whole thing totally mind-blowing?
