That must be why they accused the White House of running a "gulag" at Guantanamo Bay. That must be why they charge the Bush administration with "torture, enforced disappearance and impunity," saying that interrogation methods and detention conditions approved by the White House are "in clear breach of international law." That must be why the preamble to their 2008 Annual Report singles out Washington for criticism, stating: "The USA must close Guantánamo detention camp and secret detention centres, prosecute the detainees under fair trial standards or release them, and unequivocally reject the use of torture and ill-treatment."

Your powers of critical reasoning are nothing short of astounding. We mean that.
