"Mr President, the hypocrisy of the imperialist powers and their double-speak about human rights is demonstrated most graphically behind the wire in Guantánamo Bay. The WikiLeaks files have now given an even clearer picture of the grossest abuses of human rights that have taken place there – the widespread use of waterboarding, other forms of brutal torture to extract confessions and information – and they also revealed that hundreds of people were held in Guantánamo with no real evidence against them.
Yet Barrack Obama has not only ditched his promise to shut that horrific prison but has now approved the resumption of military trials for detainees. This hell-hole must be shut down immediately with all of the current detainees having access to fair trial before a civilian court, all of the secret CIA torture prisons in Europe must be shut down, the use of Shannon airport in Ireland for military and rendition flights by the CIA must be ended, and the barbaric death penalty must be brought to an end."@en1
