After being released from Guantanamo thanks to pressure from the Swedish government, this Swede (who was arrested by the U.S. military while studying Islam in Pakistan) was brutally tortured by U.S. military personnel for 2 1/2 years. It's yet another example of the Nazi-like practices now being conducted by the U.S. military.
STOCKHOLM (Reuters) - A Swede released from Guantanamo Bay last week said he had been tortured by exposure to freezing cold, noise and bright lights and chained during his 2-1/2-year imprisonment.
Mehdi Ghezali, the son of an Algerian-born immigrant, told Swedish media in interviews published or aired Wednesday that he was interrogated almost every day at the U.S. naval base on Cuban soil.
Ghezali told Dagens Nyheter daily and Swedish public radio he had cooperated for the first six months but stopped talking when his interrogators kept asking the same questions.
Ghezali said he went Pakistan to study Islam in August 2001, before the September 11 attacks which triggered President Bush's war on terrorism and the U.S.-led invasion of Afghanistan.
