World-News

Jeffrey Kaye, The Public Record: 'It could have been big news, if U.S. torture weren t so anathema to the press corps, such that reporting upon it is considered either a fruitless and unprofitable enterprise, or among most of those who do venture into such waters, the sine qua non for such reportage must be ignorance and/or cover-up for much of what the U.S. military and intelligence agencies do.'

Healers, Torture and National Security

Stephen Xenakis, Truthout: 'In 2004, the news that Americans had committed abuse and mistreatment in Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo was shocking. Even more alarming, were the revelations that physicians, psychiatrists, and other mental health professionals had assisted with interrogations that bordered on torture.'

Beyond Guantanamo, a Web of Prisons for Terrorism Inmates

Scott Shane, The New York Times News Service: 'It is the other Guantanamo, an archipelago of federal prisons that stretches across the country, hidden away on back roads. Today, it houses far more men convicted in terrorism cases than the shrunken population of the prison in Cuba that has generated so much debate.'
