Is Sesame Street really torture for ME terrorists? That's great.

I'd kill my own mother if they played anything by HART for more than about 3 minutes.

Does the left really want to concede that music is torture?

The US Army should prepare to face the mother of all attacks from the RIAA. I doubt that the people they were playing it to had valid licenses for those songs.

They should arrest all RIAA people, send them to Gitmo and subject them to whatever techniques they have available. I would not mind. :evil:

Back when the US invaded Panama to capture Noriega, he was holed up in one of his houses. To drive him out the army played full volume heavy metal 24/7 outside the house (Noriega is an opera fanatic). It worked-he surrendered peacably.

Back to the list-Babylon by David Gray is a pretty good song-I wouldn't want to hear it 100 times in a row, but it's head and shoulders above the rest.

Agree, very good one.

Wow, no Meshuggah

 

[ThunderDawg]

I can't believe Cher is NOT on the list. [Edit] or Barbra Streisand [/Edit]
But then again, they couldn't have all the detainees killing themselves.

Not quite true, it was the Vatican embassy he was holed up in.

Capture
Noriega fled during the attack and a manhunt ensued. After threatening that he would call for guerilla warfare if the Apostolic Nuncio did not give him refuge, he finally turned up in the Apostolic Nunciature, the Holy See's embassy in Panama, where he had extorted refuge. U.S. troops set up a perimeter outside this building, as any direct action on the embassy itself would have violated the customs of international law, including the Vienna Convention, as well as constituting an act of war on the Vatican and enraging Roman Catholics. The Nuncio and his staff attempted to compel Noriega to leave on his on accord, in an effort to prevent the warfare that Noriega threatened.

During the resulting stand-off, U.S. forces bombarded the embassy with loud music played through boomboxes. Contrary to many reports, the purpose of this was to prevent the use of parabolic microphones to eavesdrop on negotiations taking place within the embassy, and not to exert psychological pressure, though this may well have been a secondary effect [16];[1].

Though the Vatican wished for Noriega to be expelled from the Nunciature as well, it complained to President George H.W. Bush because of the disruptive noise and U.S. troops stopped the noise. After a demonstration a few days later by thousands of Panamanians demanding he stand trial for human rights violations, Noriega surrendered on January 3, 1990

As long as a given song is not a torture to us, then it shouldn't be a torture for them. I mean, its not like a captured U.S. soldier would go crazy listening to this all day/night:

Anything short of rubber gloves and smiley faces is torture. In fact, being held against their will seems rather torturous.
