Given the overwheling evidence, the series of confessions by Guards stationed at Guantanamo providing clear and specific corroboration to detainee accounts, is it not time for Australian media to take this story seriously.

Other guards have commited suicide or are suffering continuing trauma from the events they witnessed and the actions they performed.

The testimony from so many disparate sources all corroborate unerringly the very same details attested by some many detainees. Interrogation footage of the child Kahr held at Guanatanamo are also publicly available and they too provide first hand testimony.

Yes that is right I'm sure.

Let's face it, detained terrorists would never lie, now would they.

Unfortunately Americans lost track of what side they are on.
However in truth, we heard about it because America warts and all, is far better than those they fight.
No innocent throat cut for video, no screams in fear from the victim.
Let us be grateful for America, and not blind to the butchers of children they fight.

You're living in La-La Land if you don't think horrible stuff happens in war. That particular moral dilemma is as old as war itself. The debate about whether torture actually works or not is relatively new, though.

I think the only way it would net good info is if you know for A FACT the detainee knows the information you're after. Otherwise, you can't trust the intel. I'll tell you anything you want ... or don't for that matter too ... if you're drilling holes in me with a black and decker.

Still waiting on a topic on the morals of the enemy hacking off heads live on TV and posting the vids online. That won't happen because somehow *we* expect OUR troops to act better than the enemy.

I'm sorry, but if I know some enemy combatant planted a bombs for me and my mates I'm going to get that info. Or he'll die trying.

Obama was to shut down places like Guantanamo but didn't.He just expanded the wars of imperialism.

http://www.ae911truth.org/ The proof of controlled demolition is absolute scientific fact.

hasbeen, the testimony is from US guards not detainees.
Belly and Stg who fed you that fiction? What war and if it is a war how do you treat prisoners of war?

Torture has a brutalizing effect. What we do today to supposed terrorists we will find reasons to repeat against others and inevitably against each other.

Principles hastily abandoned will not easily be restored.
