Let me also thank you Andy for this article, and your diligent work.

Al Ghazzawi’s is one of the heartbreaking stories. It was dreadful that Ms Gorman had to take a diagnostic checklist with her, to try to determine what kind of liver disease he had. Sami Al Hajj also acquired Hepatitis in Guantanamo. I think this is one of the pieces of evidence that suggests the captives told the truth that during the height of the hunger strikes vengeful guards reused filthy feeding tubes.

All the evidence that has been made public strongly suggests the captives received terrible medical care.
