I agree completely with Naomi Wolf on this,
call it what it is. Sexual humiliation.

the outrages are some of the most powerful men and women in the
United States. How extraordinary, then, to learn that one of the
perpetrators, Condoleezza Rice, has just led the debate in a
special session of the United Nations Security Council on the use
of sexual violence as a weapon of war.</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.smh.com.au/news/opinion/call-sex-crimes-what-they-are/2008/06/25/1214073338060.html"><P>We now know that the torture of prisoners was the result of a
policy set in the White House by the former secretary of defence,
Donald Rumsfeld; the Vice-President, Dick Cheney; and Rice - who
chaired the torture meetings. The Pentagon has also acknowledged
that it had authorised sexualised abuse of detainees as part of
interrogation practices to be performed by females. And documents
obtained by the American Civil Liberties Union have Rumsfeld, in
his own words, "checking in" on the sexualised humiliation of
prisoners.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/A1642156-1507-49F9-B95A-E1C497F406B9/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
