Scary

Watched "60 minutes" the other day. It was about a German guy that had ended up at Guantanamo. Six weeks after he was captured, the CIA had written in their reports that no links were found between the German and Al Qaida. The same information was given to German officials.

Still, this poor guy, was kept at Guantanamo for three and a half more years, for no obvious reason. He claims that he, on top of that, was tortured there. The details given by him is similar to details about torture, given by many other former prisoners.

The scary thing is that this German guy, most likely, is not the only innocent person kept at Guantanmo. This is what happens when people are not given the right to a trial.
