re: "have no reason to disbelieve Newsweek's story."

Here's what you do. Get a decent size book, drop it in your toilet and see if you can flush it down.

While the toilets Gitmo prisoners use are squat toilets, they flush with running water, and the barracks have indoor plumbing. This means the toilet has some type of water trap - and this means the book has to first fit down a hole that narrows to about 3x3 (maybe even smaller) inches, then it has to bend 180 degrees then another 90 degrees to be "flushed down".

Tell me how it goes.
