Glad to see the Guardian at least is not afraid to use the T-word. What conceivable benefit to society or the prisoner (or "detainee" as we quaintly call them at Guantánamo) can be generated by this kind of treatment? Many of the prisoners at the Florence CO "supermax" prison are held in similar conditions. http://www.npr.org/2012/06/21/155513749/the-grim-… Reply
