Torture at Guantanamo
Submitted by The Media Consortium on Thu, 2008-05-22 13:07.by Brian Beutler, The Media Consortium: Tue., May 20, 2008
Murat Kurnaz, a young Turkish citizen born and raised in Germany, traveled to Pakistan to learn more about Islam in October 2001, weeks after the September 11 terrorist attacks against the United States. In short order, arrested and held by U.S. forces in Kandahar, and then shipped off to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Bad timing was his only crime.
