"The files depict a system often focused less on containing dangerous terrorists or enemy fighters, than on extracting intelligence. Among inmates who proved harmless were an 89-year-old Afghan villager, suffering from senile dementia, and a 14-year-old boy who had been an innocent kidnap victim."
Well, more damning shit against the Americans and Guantanamo. And to be honest, I'm not surprised.
Fair play to them for listing the Pakistani intelligence service as a terrorist organisation, though. They should have done that a long time ago.
