Human beings will be happier - not when they cure cancer or get to Mars or eliminate racial prejudice or flush Lake Erie but when they find ways to inhabit primitive communities again. That's my utopia.

Conditions

I've seen very little in the news about the abuses at Guantanamo. Instead all I see is Mary Cheney's name. Personally, I care as much about Mary Cheney and the conditions surrounding the media flap as I cared about Monica and the conditions surrounding that flap.

Conditions I do care about however, are barely being addressed in the media.
Corpus Callosum has pulled together quite a bit, including word docs of profiles of some of the detainees (published with their permission).

Did it fly right by you, for instance, that
Up to 28 U.S. soldiers face possible criminal charges in connection with the deaths of two prisoners at an American-run prison in Afghanistan two years ago or that Uncooperative Guantanamo Bay detainees were regularly subjected to highly abusive treatment over a long period of time?

What is it that led to these conditions? Who are the parents and lovers of this child?
