Medical records compiled by doctors caring for prisoners at the U.S. detention camp at Guantanamo Bay are being tapped to design more effective interrogation techniques, says an explosive new report.

Doctors, nurses and medics caring for the approximately 600 prisoners at the U.S. naval base in Cuba are required to provide health information to military and CIA interrogators, according to the report in the respected New England Journal of Medicine.

"Since late 2003, psychiatrists and psychologists (at Guantanamo) have been part of a strategy that employs extreme stress, combined with behaviour-shaping rewards, to extract actionable intelligence from resistant captives," it states.

Such tactics are considered torture by many authorities, the authors note.

Okay, so we haven't reached the depravity of the Third Reich's "Angel of Death," Dr. Josef Mengele, just yet, but it sounds like we're on the way. The more I learn about what's going on in America's name at these "detention centers," the more I believe that "Nazi" is the right word to use. I guarantee that if this was happening to American soldiers, the right wing would be screaming "Nazi" at the top of their lungs, and, of course, they'd be justified in doing so. This use of doctors and POW medical records is really fucking creepy. Things are bad. Really bad.
