Former Detainees Speak Out
The Daily Dish | By Andrew Sullivan —
Daphne Eviatar sets the scene:
The American Civil Liberties Union has just released a video of interviews with five former Guantanamo detainees, talking about their experiences of abuse in U.S. custody. It’s not easy to watch, but it’s certainly worthwhile. [...T]he fact that all the men were eventually released without charge suggests, at least, that the Bush administration’s claim that they were among “the worst of the worst” didn’t turn out to be true.
