The study cited nine cases in particular where the \u201cenhanced interrogation\u201d was in line with torture, all of which doctors explained away as \u201cpersonality disorders.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">That was every day life in Guantanamo Bay, it seems, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wired.com\/dangerroom\/2011\/04\/gitmo-docs-torture\/\">where doctors shrugged off<\/a> broken bones, didn\u2019t ask about lacerations and nerve damage, or other signs of savage beatings. Even hallucinations were \u201croutine\u201d and the doctors just assumed they were \u201ctemporary.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">The report concluded that the evidence documented by the doctors was largely consistent with the detainee\u2019s claims of torture, beyond that fact that the doctors dismissed the conclusions. The report has spawned new criticism of the detention center and the mistreatment of detainees therein.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\">Pentagon officials have yet to comment on the report. Officials have constantly maintained that the treatment of detainees at Guantanamo Bay has always been within the letter of the law (such as it is for extralegal detentions), but these claims always revolved around the doctors\u2019 assertions. With those in doubt, officials will need a new justification for the sordid behavior at the facility.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color:#000000;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/news.antiwar.com\/2011\/04\/26\/study-gitmo-doctors-ignored-signs-of-torture\/\">Fuente<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&lt; Officials Shrugged Off Data Suggesting Beatings by Jason Ditz, April 26, 2011 A newly released study details a number of cases in which government..<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5730,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[166,185,97,119],"tags":[197,226],"class_list":["post-5727","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-government","category-prisons","category-us-news","category-war","tag-imperialism","tag-imperialist-war"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/redphoenix.news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/gitmocage.jpg?fit=256%2C350&ssl=1","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5727","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5727"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5727\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5730"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5727"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5727"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/redphoenix.news\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5727"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
