Hey Im Trying To Find Out Why American Troops Put Bags Over Detaines' Heads.i Mean They Blind Fold Them Whats Up With The Bags That Actualy Look Plastic.cant That Kill Them?they Are Ppl Too.please Clear This Up For Me

POWs are often sources of information. The best way to keep them from being able to communicate with each other and the best way to gain information without torture, which we do not allow, is sensory deprivation especially during travel. It serves many purposes- 1 it lessens their ability of escape 2- it causes them to focus on simple tasks like walking rather than planning 3- it makes it easier to manage a large group. The bags are not plastic. They are a cloth material. There is nothin inhumane in this. It is a security issue, since handcuffs can not be used for dozens or hundreds of people.
