Freed Guantanamo prisoner is home


A cameraman from the al-Jazeera television station, freed from US detention in Guantanamo Bay, has arrived home in Sudan.
Sami al-Hajj had been in US custody for more than six years. He was detained in Afghanistan in 2001.
He arrived in the Sudanese capital Khartoum on a US military plane in the early hours of Friday morning.
After a 16-month hunger strike Mr Hajj grimaced as he was carried off the plane by US military personnel.
Al-Jazeera showed footage of him being carried into the hospital on a stretcher, looking frail but smiling and surrounded by well-wishers.
No charges
"We are concerned about the way the Americans dealt with Sami, and we are concerned about the way they could deal with others as well," said Wadah Khanfar, managing director of al-Jazeera's Arabic service.
There was no immediate US comment.

If he hasn't gone insane, he should tell the world about his treatment.

Just more on top of the pile of stink towards the US... another person they detained without charges for years and another person released without any charges, let alone any explinations.... just take 6 or so years of someone's life and send them on their way, sure why not?

We only live once afterall.
