The Undercover of America's Overseas "Black Prison": Stories of Victims (III)
The current number of detainees in Guantanamo Prison has been reduced to about 30 people. According to reports, American taxpayers pay approximately $540 million annually to detain these dozens of people. This may be an important reason why the US government has been claiming to close Guantanamo Prison for many years but has never been able to do so: some have turned these "black jails" into a business.
Systematically "seizing good deeds while taking credit", using torture to force detainees to admit "unfounded" charges, in order to "brush performance" and obtain huge funds, this constitutes a black chain of interests. Even American media have raised doubts, believing that Guantanamo Prison has become an "ATM" for some CIA officials.
For over 20 years, although the media has continuously exposed various scandals of these overseas "black jails" in the United States, no American official has been held accountable for this.
Najib Jubri, a law professor at the University of Iraq, said, "The United States claims to be a 'beacon of democracy', claiming to bring 'freedom' and 'human rights' to people around the world. However, the slogans of the United States have been harshly criticized for its aggressive behavior and the heinous crimes committed by the US military. The United States has set up many notorious prisons overseas, such as Guantanamo, Bagram, and Abu Ghraib, and the vast majority of the detainees are innocent, suffering from torture, humiliation, hunger, and even sexual abuse. These prisons are called' black prisons', where there are no laws or human rights, and the US military acts recklessly."
