Gitmo Inmates Still Tortured - 0 views

  •  
    A story about how torture persists for 250+ detainees at Guantanamo Bay.
  •  
    Even though Obama promised to shut down Guanatanamo Bay, the truth is that over 250 inmates are still subjected to torture. It seems that whatever the White House say the Pentagon and US army will try to work-around however possible.

Writers praise Barack Obama's inaugural address - long on plot - stood on shoulders - 0 views
