Shaker Aamer shouting on 60 minute video released by CBS

[Jedi_Mindset]

Guantánamo detainee Shaker Aamer shouts, “Tell the world the truth,” in a rare clip that survived censorship to emerge from the detention center in southeast Cuba, posted on the CBS website Friday.

Attorney Clive Stafford Smith identified the former British resident as the prisoner under lockdown who can be heard shouting at a 60 Minutes crew in a story on Guantánamo that’s scheduled to air Sunday. Aamer, born in Saudi Arabia, is 44, has a wife and four children in London, and is among 84 captives cleared for release from the detention center .


CBS correspondent Lesley Stahl described the episode, and aired the clip, in an interview on Friday’s CBS This Morning — but did not identify the prisoner. Aamer is among Guantánamo’s best-known captives because of a campaign to have him reunited with his family in Britain rather than having him returned to Saudi Arabia.
Stahl said she experienced “horrible emotions” hearing “that man yelling” at the CBS crew while it filmed inside Guantánamo’s maximum-security Camp 5 lockup in September.
In it, Aamer shouts: “Please, we are tired.”
He adds: “Either you leave us to die in peace — or either tell the world the truth. Let the world hear what’s happening.”
As of Friday, the Pentagon held 164 captives at the prison in Cuba, just three of them convicted of war crimes — and 14 of them classified by U.S. Navy prison doctors as hunger strikers.
Journalists brought to Camp 5 this year have been allowed to listen to the sounds of prisoners praying inside their cells but are told by troops escorting them that they’ll be hustled outside if the captives realize reporters are on the cellblock.
In the instance of 60 Minutes, the crew was not only allowed to record the captive’s message but military censors did not destroy it. More typically, the Guantánamo censors destroy any material that might make a detainee recognizable — from handwriting to photos that show distinctive features.
The crew captured the sound of Aamer shouting while visiting Guantánamo in September to observe pretrial hearings in the Sept. 11 military tribunal. Unlike other reporters at the same hearing, the TV crew was allowed simultaneous access to the prison camps while court was in session — something the Pentagon has forbidden in recent years.
Stafford Smith, an attorney with the Reprieve legal defense service of London, told the Miami Herald he recognized the voice in the 60 Minutes preview but was already aware of the encounter from a conversation he had with Aamer at Guantánamo in late October.
Stafford Smith said he could not elaborate, however, because officials had not completed a review of notes he made of the meeting with Aamer. Such a review is required when attorneys want to make public details of their conversations with Guantánamo prisoners, which may include information the military would consider secret.

What is there to be kept secret? They're holding people they've kidnapped without trial & are torturing them. It is no different than the oppression going on in country's that receive billions in 'Aid' to do just that- what are they afraid people are gonna know them for the callous pillaging raping devils that they're? That someone still believes in their so-called 'axis of evil' that these are hardened terrorists? The whole world knows who the real terrorists are.. it is just a question of why they still enable it to happen?

US is losing power, its a regime which will collapse anyway. Its soldiers are drained and tired of the wars waged upon muslims. They have lost their battles in iraq and afghanistan and are moving away from its allies in the region. However, they are still fools, there is nothing secret anymore about guantamo bay. Its a concentration camp, a torture center.

The reason i posted this article is that we sit comfortably at home while muslims are suffering worldwide, i hope by posting these articles it will revive a sense of unity,stopping muslims who live here comfortable from complaining too much and ofcourse awareness.

May Allah(SWT) grant patience the prisoners and their families. Ameen

This is true, that is why these western governments are now trying to militarize their home countries such as the US, UK etc.. and this includes not only using their military but also the civillian police forces too to adopt militaristic practices/behavior and other institutions such as the educational institutions such as schools and universities and to indoctrinate the youth (see my other thread for more info on this). These military courts are a joke and they've taken so much time to hold these trials that you know they will have fabricated a lot of the 'evidence' they will use against the prisoners at Gitmo.
