So apparently our military has decided to use what they call a 'sonic bludgeon' in order to get information out of prisoners with out actually using, you know, physical torture. This is truly American innovation at its best!

Interrogators at military prisons like Guantanamo Bay blast songs, like Britney Spear's "Baby One More Time," into cells at high decibels on repeat for hours at a time. The goal is that prisoners will eventually leak information. No word if any prisoner has cracked to the point of shaving their own head and attacking anyone with an umbrella.
