Here is the New York Times' description of Faiz Muhammad, one of the just-released Afghan men that a reporter visited on October 27: Babbling at times like a child, the partially deaf, shriveled old man was unable to answer simple questions. He struggled to complete sentences and strained to hear words that were shouted at him. His faded mind kept failing him. Muhammad told journalists that he was 105 but he appeared to be in his late seventies. His advanced age, and obvious senility, vividly belied the "enemy combatant" label. A second released detainee, who walked with the aid of a cane and was also thought to be in his late seventies, was equally unmartial in appearance and demeanor. read full story / add a comment

WITCH HUNT against NIO civil servants! NIO civil servants face summary arrest and interrogation, if the state targets them, becos their relatives/friends maybe sympathetic to Sinn fein/SDLP or simply becos they are catholic living in republican areas. There is a pervading climate of fear in northern ireland, where catholic/republican/left wing protestant workers not only face summary execution by the LVF but now also ARREST AND INTERROGATION by the brit state security services on false charges/allegations of spying. read full story / add a comment
