. erik. sweden. my friend we do feel and we would like to. see what time of day so. we want to show it's possible. it is it is possible to give you a different number or a u.s. air force captain off a process. oh affairs care problem hello my name is eric and the insights from swedish. regarding visits to.

face yes we have quite a quarter we go. just about every wednesday. and there and i quite get from puerto rico to guantanamo the flights are story. you will be required to pay twelve dollars a night person. watching. and whatever it is you occur for telephone or area and me or. you'll be able to see the care for which they are detained and. you'll see a somewhat of a dissident and you'll be able to photograph it all right this is very good if they share yeah i thank you very much richard saw it carry more prosser question i mean off. yet. i think. it's actually have.

the people. in sweden. have the opportunity to speak with different people. it's an experience that i feel like. and his job is to show us that everything is ok here. but we have come here because we want to know what is really going on at guantanamo filming isn't allowed inside the prison camp so we were thinking of shooting with a hidden camera. unfortunately that's just not going to happen. we know there's a swedish guy held inside here his name is. will be released later when he returns to sweden he'll give only one press conference. you say five months.

how did you finance all these trips six trips in two years where were you. supported bin laden and. al qaeda fighters did you carry arms what do you think of bin laden. and after that he won't talk to us he refuses to talk to anyone who has anything to do with the media. but to tell his story we have to go back. to long before the press conference. was still held. and when there was only one official version as you can hear it on the radio station voice of america. being scrutinized. at the u.s. naval base at guantanamo bay cuba. select few american servicemen and u.s.

officials have direct contact with the prisoners. u.s. officials insist the detainees are not tortured or subject to any cruel treatment during interrogation sessions in fact. their way to make their captors feel comfortable to coax information from. fashion. exactly right here the story could have ended if it wasn't for this man who we saw in a public square. he's my father and he had a feeling that things were not good at guantanamo and. forty to forty five degrees of heat looked up and and chained. night totally isolated not allowed to speak to see or to hear but matty's father didn't know that it was the other way around it was matted together with most of the other prisoners

that had in fact decided to stop talking. rumor now was that it wasn't forty degrees one hundred anymore that the army had started exposing prisoners to freezing temperatures to get them to talk what i would do is urge him as a father to reach out to communicate with his son. which we will transform and ask his son to just cooperate. this will help him determine his future. richard prosper the man with the good advice and puppy dog eyes. he is an expert of international law and is signed by the president to visit the countries that have citizens being held at guantanamo. here he was in sweden to persuade mentees father to convince his son to start to talk again.

in the geneva conventions but he by his conduct is not the benefits of. a prisoner of war. think. in chains day and night. you need to keep in mind that the people in u.s. custody are not there because they stole a car. or robbed a bank. that's not why they're there. they're enemy combatants and terrorists who are being detained for acts of war against our country and that is why different. the head of the international. human rights issues say the of clear. what you're

doing is against. human rights conventions there was a fundamental problem i think i know for certain is that these are bad people the united states at one point in time signed the geneva convention. stated that prisoners of war need only to answer for questions of name rank nationality and i.d. number. four simple questions won't get you very far when you need answers to hundreds of questions a prison camp full of prisoners of war who only need to answer for questions is a useless prison camp. but there were no other rules. and leaders from countries who had citizens at guantanamo were worried primarily. the first matter he brought up. was the swedish prisoner he was very forthright very frank and very concerned about. the situation seemed to be out of control.

simply. because. what nobody knew was the president had written a letter. a letter that only the president's inner circle world where oh. in the letter he wrote that there was a new paradigm in the world and the rules were no longer defined by the u.s. but by terrorists this new world order got him thinking and after extensive discussions he came to the simple conclusion of the geneva convention could not be applied to terrorists. and for that reason he came up with a new word for the prisoners at guantanamo unlawful combatants. no one had heard this word before. and no one knew what consequences this work.

now. as the army has nicknamed it we still have a team he's still being held in here most of the time we are on this bus touring all the recreational activities of vailable to the soldiers stationed here . when the operation first started out it was something that was new and just like

with everything you want to prove and prove it in the us. through the living standards for its troops to keep. the subway here slowly we're improving the condition of the soldiers and this is just. but we haven't come here to take part in the soldier's delight over the variety of fast food we want to know what's really going on here. here we are at the gates to camp delta where the prisoners are kept. the person in front is sergeant johnson the man behind the scenes who has the authority over us as the second is colonel mcqueen responsible for security. as much as you can.

leaving. we are american soul and being american soldiers we come up with a way of life a democracy that provides the rights to people to be treated humanely fair. how do you do that because i'm a military professional as military professional i've been given a mission and that mission says that i will safely secure the detainee within camp delta and by the humane treatment people didn't i didn't. question. the family for example the family of this we. you know they don't know why he's here they thought that he went to study they have no information they don't they haven't been able to see him for a year what would you tell them if you met them what would you say to them. i would tell them to detention standpoint. each and every detainee here is being treated

humanely. he. still trying to convince me to take this opportunity to tell us what had happened but something always came up making it difficult for us to meet. but now he has promised to help us to get in touch with other prisoners released from guantanamo. this is jamal from manchester who was with methane guantanamo. and there's man who still hasn't decided if he wants to talk. remember. speak you. know what they would do the. next to each different people to see if you know. author speaks english that person to see the connection with these guys from. before.

oh yeah when people move. what. you heard was cool. or i wouldn't say that. i once thought up i would want to let them know. well refused to answer that one. for me the most crucial thing here is to be. where you. are. maybe. it seems hard to talk about what happened to them in guantanamo. especially from a. maybe because he's devoted two years to keeping silent. and i was in the war nor tortured physically.

my head complicated with americans told them all they wanted to know. for about six months but it was too much so i stopped talking with them for two years. they started using the methods you heard about you know believe me i've been in the interrogation room i was kept in there for twelve fourteen hours. and they put on air conditioning and about thirteen degrees below zero. mark stupid you're talking to the god. and this caused

a loss and we have you on the next phase being someone who's next to you on this crisis so yeah i did the same thing myself looked at the cost. my name is sergeant andrew slammed. enough for thirty eight military police company from early kentucky. just know that we did and to get this. if it's like this. i'll make a mistake and save a lot of emphasis from slade ohio. and any specialist michael from i think if.

you know the swedish guy he's there he's. my personal and actually i can tell you that we don't comment on specific details or specific nationalities so that question to him he would be ok and she. is. going to need to do these i just don't do my job they finish tours of one of them is going there. don't talk and neither do the prisoners. maybe it has something to do with this man. his name is general miller and he's the commanding officer at guantanamo

he's agreed to a short interview he is in in an unusually good mood. mission to detain enemy combatants and then to gain intelligence from there to be able to win the global war on terrorism and so we are detaining these combatants in a humane manner in a matter. that is appropriate today in accordance as much as we can with the geneva convention. we do we work very hard to ensure that the detainees are maintained. in this manner. but what's wrong with. that. when we were doing this interview with miller we were not aware of how important he was to the story because no other single person has had as much influence over how the prisoners at guantanamo are treated. but what we

do know is that miller hasn't always been in charge of the base. before we left we found a short article about general rick baucus who was in command before miller. because it was fired under very weird circumstances the only ones who seemed willing to speculate why is military corruption an organization consisting of ex military personnel who investigate corruption within the army ok all i can say to you as we're on the telephone all i can say to you is we have a network of sources that we call see. potential informants. all i can say on the telephone. is a one star general brigadier general. he ran into trouble with a two star general who is in charge of the interrogation. i think it's been they can be complained about policy dealing with those prisoners who would come and sit

down in front of the cage and that she speaks of the detainee's that within the cages and then the soldiers the american soldiers were to pleased to see the big general come down and sit down on the ground from. bank gun fired because he was too nice to the prisoners. and was opposed to a secret list of unconventional questioning methods that outward goldring out of this. is that. some of the interrogations may i don't have to prove. the violation of human rights or what we would not sure where you hear when general those of us here know we came just after you had a you know what. have you heard anything.

nothing that i would want to repeat because i don't know if it is true. and as far as the history of general back to. all we know as far as he was he everyone here is on a tour of. six months and he finishes six months or two more home we called up and baucus is old press secretary and southern command. both. you can ask now i don't know how to get budget they need no longer in the military he retired or even yet he retired out earlier this month. though to be argued i had no way of getting into that either but baucus has not retired he has been reassigned to a desk job. and you know his phone number ok area or row one. now.

this writ back of many me as. a filmmaker ad. to ask if you quest is a bad one tell them all about what happened there. was you know that i'm not on there anymore and any public affairs inquiry is not prefer it to the other comedian the public affairs officer. you don't talk about at this point i'm not off the record or. ok thank you for calling. is not the story about baucus. we would contact him again. even if he isn't just a small pawn in a much bigger game. the security of the world requires disarming saddam hussein. saddam hussein and his sons must leave iraq within forty eight hours. past majority

of iraqi citizens. this event brings a further assurance that the torture chambers and the secret police are gone forever. but when these pictures from saddam's ghraib prison came out. it's clear they had a scandal on their hands some say these methods originated in guantanamo we just haven't seen the pictures rumors have also begun to circulate new rumors of interrogators using sex and hip hop music to get people to crack. use the sexual act during interrogation against. first the enemy

personnel by people you know it happens in school. if. the. world it was on that i did that sean a lot of other things but then they sent in a girl who. will continue and she came up to me and started to talk. and she told me she could do many things for me she started to touch me give me a massage and she grabbed me as certain places and and she actually told me that she could do plenty for me. but when she came closer to see certain sponsors then i had put up my hands and trying to protect myself and when she saw that at the end she got angry since i didn't want to

you know. but she said that whenever i wanted to see her and she said her name was sylvia and. just tell them that you want to see me. and then we'll arrange everything and after that she left. maybe that sounds like a prisoner's dream. to have a uniform give him. but we are sure the methods aren't used to for the prisoners comfort and convenience. what kind of bizarre interrogation methods are being used at guantanamo and what happens to the prisoners that are still being held there and are these methods really sanctioned from a. part of the answer

comes thanks to the abu ghraib scandal in iraq. which set off a storm of protests and a wave of investigations which made public thousands of previously classified documents. human rights activists all over the world began taking measures to get prisoners released from guantanamo. or get a piece of paper. which. interrogation techniques. these are techniques actually approved. and if you read them. among all the documents we find a story a story that has its beginning in the fall of two thousand and two they have a problem at guantanamo the prisoners have stopped talking and the old methods don't seem to be effective anymore. now they want to interrogate for twenty hours.

remove prisoners clothes let them stand naked in an uncomfortable position. where. they also want permission under medical supervision to lower the temperatures. and take advantage of prisoners. for example of prisoners fear of dogs. so here you have our search area of the fence. the use of dogs and of course the word phobias is particularly interesting because that has to do with. the real. just for muslims the dogs are on glee but later happens in the interrogation. when the new methods are implemented only the prisoners know and their interrogators the problem is that the interrogators at guantanamo don't give interviews with one
