CUBA Guantanamo Bay -- c.2002 -- Detainee hospital ward, Camp Delta, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. The Guantanamo Bay facility has been widely criticised by lawyers and human rights groups, as many detainees were simply bought from dubious Afghan warlords and it is thought many of the inmates have little to do with Al Queda. Despite this, many were tortured by US forces upon their detention, seemingly on orders from George W Bush himself (or at least his office). Very few "terrorists" have since been convicted with any solid evidence and almost 200 people have died in US detention facilities like this - most of them innocent men.
