Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4The human rights group Amnesty International also released a report last week calling the prison camp "the gulag of our time".
Myers said the report was "absolutely irresponsible". He said the US was doing its best to detain fighters who, if released, "would turn right around and try to slit our throats, slit our children’s throats".
"This is a different kind of struggle, a different kind of war," Myers said on a Fox news programme.
"We struggle with how to handle them (the prisoners), but we’ve always handled them humanely and with the dignity that they should be accorded."
Myers repeated the Pentagon’s contention that five cases of mistreatment of the Koran at Guantanamo had been confirmed. He did not give any other details about the mistreatment.
The US military had detained more than 68,000 people since the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, he said, and looked into 325 complaints of mistreatment. Investigations have found 100 cases of prisoner mistreatment and 100 people have been punished, the general said.
Demonstrators interrupted a speech by Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice on Friday by recreating an image of the Abu Ghraib prison abuse scandal in which a hooded prisoner stood with his arms outstretched attached to electric wires.
Amid tight security at San Francisco's Davies Symphony Hall, three women and one man pulled on black hoods and cloaks and stood on their seats, acting out the scene caught in one of the photographs of abuse that undermined U.S. prestige abroad.
Rice initially continued her speech on American foreign policy under President Bush but paused when the protesters shouted "Stop the torture. Stop the killing. U.S. out of Iraq," as police led them out of the auditorium.
Medea Benjamin, one of the protesters, said they were kept in police custody for about an hour and a half and then released with a misdemeanor citation. "We feel we made our point," said Benjamin, a founding director of the human rights group Global Exchange.
