Hmmm.. Its interesting that yesterday they were reporting that a suspect had been detained for two months for *posessing information about Guantanamo bay* and now there are reports that he is being accused of passing information to Syrian nationals. Suddenly a story, involving a chaplain and an air force commander *having* information about who was at Guantanamo bay (ie something that might, just maybe, turn out to be whistle blowers or people of good conscience being silenced through unlawful detentions) turns into a story involving Traitors selling secrets to hostile governments. Forgive me for being deeply cynical, but maybe there are Pentagon spinmeisters at work on this?
[Update: When it came down to it they dropped the espionage charges down to, uh.. what was it ? Adultery? Is that still a crime. Come on guys, you can do better than that? Hmm does this mean I was right in my original suspicions that maybe these folks were whistleblowers trying to get out information about what its like in that god forsaken place? ]
