follow-up on the gitmo blacksite 'suicides'


my elegy to al-zahrani was posted below, and now harper's has written a full expose (pardon my french) of the blatant cover-up of three detainees murdered (probably tortured intentionally to death) in guantanomo bay in 2006. research teams have scoured redacted documents and officers have come forward to contradict the official narrative fabricated by the u.s. gov't.

thanks to scott horton for bringing this to light, and also to all who've been on the ball (hat-tip to andrew sullivan for first alerting me to this particular story via his 'daily dish'). it's haunted me now for months.


the article is here.
