"Rule of law" at Gitmo
Via the Canadian state media:
Well, torture does lead to false confessions. So I guess the people running gitmo just do it "because they can," eh? Just like Bush.
Three British men freed from U.S. custody at Guantanamo Bay said they were beaten by American soldiers in Afghanistan and pressured into falsely confessing they'd been caught on video with Osama bin Laden, two newspapers reported Sunday.
The three, friends from Tipton in central England, were among five Britons flown home from Guantanamo on Tuesday. They all were held for more than two years and were released without charge.
