Binyam Mohamed

Binyam Mohamed, four year prisoner of Guantanamo Bay, returned to the UK today.  Here's a quote from the article:

"Before this ordeal, torture was an abstract word to me. I could never have imagined that I would be its victim. It is still difficult for me to believe that I was abducted, hauled from one country to the next, and tortured in medieval ways – all orchestrated by the United States government."

What have we done? How was this allowed to happen? I am truly ashamed.
