It's intersting that the public may have heard of the "al-Qaeda 7" lawyers who work in the "Dept. of Jihad":
Yet know nothing of the Gitmo 3, the supposedly suicides that occured at
Guantanamo Bay's Camp Delta.
As Scott Horton wrote:
Late on the evening of June 9 that year, three prisoners at Guantánamo died suddenly and violently. Salah Ahmed Al-Salami, from Yemen, was thirty-seven. Mani Shaman Al-Utaybi, from Saudi Arabia, was thirty. Yasser Talal Al-Zahrani, also from Saudi Arabia, was twenty-two, and had been imprisoned at Guantánamo since he was captured at the age of seventeen. None of the men had been charged with a crime, though all three had been engaged in hunger strikes to protest the conditions of their imprisonment. They were being held in a cell block, known as Alpha Block, reserved for particularly troublesome or high-value prisoners.
