David Hicks Details His Abuse By U.S. Military

David Hicks, one of the Australian citizens held in Guantanamo Bay against the Geneva Conventions has finally been able to make a sworn statement of the abuse he has suffered at the hands of the U.S. military. Available as a PDF (from the amazing Project to Enforce the Geneva Conventions, a one man effort to file Amicus briefs with the supreme courts hearing detention cases), it is essential reading to understand some of the torture that is being performed on prisoners.
