And am in tears, to see such a humble man who has had a his 14 years of life stolen from him and his family yet he shows so much humility. And to the guard, others can learn from you. These two men deserve this bond and friendship. And I have a feeling they will be friends for life. Am happy I watched this.

For some reason this didn't surprise me at all, according to this video, the guy was apparently innocent, and the guard was smart enough to realize that, how can you not feel sympathy for someone who is being unjustly detained, and how can you not be thankful for your prison guard treating you with respect like a human being, it all adds up if you ask me

There are many like him some got out and most are still suffering, not just in US. US learned these techniques and the "terrorism" excuse to detain people from dictatorships they (US) helped to install in the M.E. to control the whole region. In his story, he explains that he was tortured by Americans, Jordanians, and Egyptians and probably Moroccan military, in Guantanamo. Those governments are all against humanity. And we should unite against injustice.

Mr. James, if you mean the three who were said to have committed suicide, this is incorrect for many reasons, how three prisoners committed suicide at the same time. Also, one of those described as suicide, his name is (Manea Al-Otaibi). It contains torture. I do not know why all this secrecy over this incident. This is a disgrace to America. I do not mean the American people, but the government and the American law that deafens our ears to justice and that it is a state of institutions. With Regards

The boubou he was given is brand new. It's shiny because there is a special process to make it that way. The fabric is a cotton silk jacquard, like table cloth. After all the sewing and embroidery is done, the cloth is dipped in a water and gum acacia blend and hung to dry. It is then "frapped", hit with a wooden mallet to make it shiny. I have been to Mauritania twice.
