How's this for "spin"

Three prisoners are tortured to the point where they can take no more and decide to escape any further pain by committing suicide - and the torturer declares their suicide to be an act of war against America!
...accounts by four guards who had served at Guantanamo ... said prisoners were taken one at a time to the camp, where they were believed to be interrogated. He believes that the three detainees that DOD announced as having committed suicide were questioned under enhanced interrogation techniques the night of their deaths.

On 10 June 2006 three detainees were found dead, who, according to the Pentagon, "killed themselves in an apparent suicide pact." Prison commander Rear Admiral Harry Harris claimed this was not an act of desperation, despite prisoners' pleas to the contrary, but rather "an act of asymmetric warfare committed against us."
