Meanwhile at Guantanamo

Nov. 30 (Bloomberg) -- The U.S. prison camp for foreign fighters and terror suspects in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, still suffers from inhumane conditions and treatment, the International Committee of the Red Cross said.

[...]

The agency didn't specify the problems and declined to confirm a New York Times report today that said the Red Cross had seen methods "tantamount to torture" of prisoners in Guantanamo. It was the first time the Red Cross, which has been visiting the prison since January 2002, suggested U.S. practices there amounted to torture, the Times said.
