The Sunday Times has a first person account by former Guantanamo chaplain James Yee on how he came to be arrested and branded a spy. It's a disturbing story and one you should all read.

    Fancy him having the nerve to tell a story like that! Any more stories like this about the US and people will start to believe WE are to blame for Muslims hating us. What a traitor to the cause of freedom, democracy, individual liberty, and human rights.

    Early this year, the Seattle Times ran a multi-part series on the Yee case. The series confirms much of what Yee's excerpt describes, including the role of the extraordinarily unqualified Orlich. That is, it confirms without showing us the reprehensible treatment Captain Yee was forced to endure at the hands of his fellow Americans.
