Topic: Camp xray


  
  Guantanamo Bay - Camp X-Ray
To identify the camps, a name was designated to each to correspond with the phonetic alphabet used for official military "radio" communication (Camp Alpha, Camp Bravo up to Camp Golf).
As of February 1, 2002, detainee in-processing and questioning at Camp X-Ray had been limited to such subjects as basic name, place of birth, time of birth, name of parents, siblings and education, though according to Sen. Inouye more in-depth interrogations was to start soon thereafter.

 Camp X Ray Torturing Prisoners and ignoring Geneva Convention
All signs of psychological repression, used hypodermic needles, empty drug vials and so on are hidden in a storeroom somewhere, and the prisoners made acutely aware of exactly what will be done to them later if they dare breathe a word to the “important” visitors.
There are a number of different drugs that cause this effect, most of which have been used by both the KGB and CIA during their long and despicable pasts.
The incredibly brave spook torturers at Camp X Ray are proceeding with their rerun of the Spanish Inquisition, happy in the belief that they are immune from prosecution.

 Camp Xray
Camp Xray is the rabbit that should remain frozen in our sight, despite the ducking and weaving by our politicians.
It is a human blasphemy that Camp Xray continues to exist and that nothing is being done by our respective governments to address something that is so inhuman that our leaders would be the first to use such a situation against any other country treating people in this way.
Camp Xray is the lie to everything that President Bush and Tony Blair say.

Camp Xray or CRX as it has become known is the better film by far but both films deserve respect so lets not turn it into a cheap competition Reply
Both films are about the same in quality of story, Yasmin has the bigger budget and obviously was shown at the peak time but Camp Xray had the shock value and it was a shame the two films could not be shown at the same time thus determining which was more popular.
Camp Xray was raw man. It wasnt dressed up and glossy like other films and that is why it succeeds in getting the anti war message across.

 Camp Xray Here to Stay
Today is the anniversary of the founding of America's prison camp for 'enemy combatants', And despite evidence of systematic abuse and widespread international condemnation it looks set to stay open
Three years ago, the world caught its first glimpse of a new breed of prisoners, captured in a new sort of war.
The place and manner of their detention, however, has become the embodiment of much that the world detests in President George Bush's global "war on terror".

The story was amazing and the way the so-called 'enemy combatants' were treated in Cuba's Camp Xray was brutal to say the least.
The film has a strong anti-war message but I guess for the horrors of the 'war on terror' to be exposed the director had to show gut wrenching scenes to make his point.
Camp Xray will become a cult classic in time but it needs to be seen by a wider audience.

 Guantanamo Camp Xray - SourceWatch
Following the events of September 11, 2001, the military operations in Afghanistan and the ensuing capture of numerous inidviduals alleged to be members or fighters aligned with Al Qaida and and the Taliban, a decision was made to transfer a number of detainees to the Camp X-Ray facility.
The base was to serve as a temporary holding facility for detainees that come under U.S. control during the war on terrorism.
Following three suicides by detainees at the Guantanamo Bay detention camp in June 2006, referred to as "the gulag of our times" by Amnesty International, are apparently not what they would seem.

 Issues › Politics › Should camp X-ray exist
The camp should not exist in the first place, so the issue of two Britons being let off is kinda irrelevant.
To hold someone in the condition in Camp X-Ray and deny them access to council/a lawyer while suggesting they be prosecuted in a completely non-impartial American military court goes beyond immoral into the ridiculous.
Of course, no other country has done enough to stop Camp X-Ray, so the blame doen't lie entirely with the US, but it is their camp, their 'justice' system and, therefore, their immoral treatment of other humans and it is wrong.

The main protest group, from interstate, was permitted to camp on Crown Land near the turn-off of Hatt Road, which leads to the base, from the Stuart Highway.
Activities at the camp ­ for much of the time ­ resembled more a bush party than a plot to threaten world security: a band was playing, and there was lots of singing, dancing and street theatre type acts between attempts ­ largely foiled by police ­ to block "space base" traffic on the road.
