Metallica song used to interrogate Iraqis
US interrogators in Baghdad are using heavy metal songs to break Iraqi captives.
Officials say subjecting prisoners to long sessions of the "culturally offensive" music encourages them to talk.
The interrogators' favourite tracks include Metallica's Enter Sandman and the Drowning Pool song Bodies, from the Vin Diesel action film XXX.
The Metallica song repeatedly makes the warning: "Sleep with one eye open, gripping your pillow tight."
Sergeant Mark Hadsell told Newsweek magazine: "These people haven't heard heavy metal before. They can't take it."
US officials say they also use children's music, such as the Sesame Street theme, and a selection of songs from Barney, the jolly purple dinosaur.
Man, must be nice. they get you out of the sun, and the sand, you get fed, and they play some Jams for you, not too shabby indeed.
Naw but seriously, this might be breaking the Genoeva convention huh?
Who say's were treating Iraqi captives bad?

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.
