Quote: | George W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld covered up that hundreds of innocent men were sent to the Guantánamo Bay prison camp because they feared that releasing them would harm the push for war in Iraq and the broader War on Terror, according to a new document obtained by The Times.
The accusations were made by Lawrence Wilkerson, a top aide to Colin Powell, the former Republican Secretary of State, in a signed declaration to support a lawsuit filed by a Guantánamo detainee. It is the first time that such allegations have been made by a senior member of the Bush Administration. |
Of course they knew they were innocent - they knew 9/11 was Inside Job! |

Quote: | Prisoner demands compensation for Guantánamo nightmare
Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson’s serious accusations against the Bush White House over Guantánamo Bay are made to support the cause of Adel Hassan Hamad, a former detainee who is now seeking compensation from the United States.
In July 2002 Mr Hamad, now 52, who worked for a Muslim humanitarian organisation, was asleep in his flat in Peshawar when it was raided by heavily armed men. He says that he believes there was also an American with them.
To this day Mr Hamad says that he does not know why he was seized. He believes that the Pakistani military, to which he had refused to give supplies from his workplace, retaliated by telling the Americans that he was a terrorist. |

Hundreds of prisoners innocent of ANYTHING! The prisoners just picked up randomly or because of grudge and sent to the US forces by warlords for the $5000 bounty!
Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld all knew this... |
