GUANTANAMO PRISONERS ATTEMPT SUICIDE

Four Guantanamo prisoners attempted suicide almost simultaneouly yesterday. When guards tried to intervene, there was a small riot. The place is such a living hell that guards risk their live to make sure that prisoners who cannot leave and can’t receive a trial also can’t die with dignity.

Fitzgerald Will Prove Cover-Up on Plame

Steve Clemons has a lot of highly placed sources, especially in the State Department.

Sudden NSA Briefings for House and Senate Intel Committees

Something that was supposed to be done years ago will now be done. Why? Because Hayden’s confirmation hearings begin tomorrow. I predict these briefings will be incredibly incomplete and inadequate.

Bush Authorized Telcos To Lie On May 5
