   It's time to hold the Bush Administration responsible for
   their war crimes in the International Criminal Court. Is
   there any reason why they are not accountable to the world?    (05)

    "Guantánamo is only part of the network of US prisons overseas
     that the Bush administration has created since 9/11.
     [...]
     In October 2002 the commander of the interrogation teams at
     Guantánamo, pleads to be allowed to inflict more suffering
     on the prisoners there.
     [...]
     Prisoners were hooded, threatened with rape, threatened with
     torture, had pistols held to their heads, made to strip naked,
     forced to eat pork and drink alcohol, beaten till they bled -
     sometimes with implements, including a broom and a chair -
     hung from doors by cuffed hands, deceived into thinking they
     were to be electrocuted, ducked in toilet buckets, forced to
     simulate masturbation, force to lie naked in a pile and be
     photographed, urinated on, menaced and, in one case, severely
     bitten by dogs, sodomised with a chemical light, ridden like
     horses, made to wear women's underwear, raped, deprived of
     sleep, exposed to the midday summer sun, put in stress positions
     and made to lie naked, in empty concrete cells, in complete
     darkness, for days on end."    (06)
