"Eye-Opening" according to Susan Hunsinger. Anyone who's caught up with current affairs since 9/11 has an opinion is used to the disturbing and frustrating stories that often come out of Guantanamo Bay: harsh interrogation tactics, inhumane prisoner abuse and the ineffectiveness of the actual trials. Even 9/11 mastermind, Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, has yet to pay for his heinous crimes. Newspapers have even just recently published the news of wide-spread hunger strikes by prisoners who are then often viol. "Excellent and up-to-date. As disturbing as it should be." according to Tanstaafl Rog. This book gives me huge appreciation for the people of integrity that are not letting the machine roll over them, but standing up for the principles of fair play, taking personal risks by refusing to go along with the political machine. Fascinating looks at the tortured logic that tries to pass off torture as merely "enhanced interrogation." Appalling that the advocates of "rough justice" just wouldn't let themselves see the ultimately self-defeating conseque. Compelling The Terror Courts is compelling, meticulously researched and well-written. It reads like a thriller but knowing that it is non-fiction makes it more powerful than any novel could be. Definitely worth reading.
