Road to Guantanamo

Yesterday I saw the film Road to Guatánamo. It was a really good film, part documentary/part movie, I think it was just released a couple days ago in the US but has been out here for a while. It's a British film that tells the story of 3 young British muslims who get stuck in Pakistan and Afghanistan during fighting between the Taliban and US and get imprisoned there and eventually taken to Guantánamo Bay for about 2 years. I think the movie is causing/ or will cause a lot of controversy in the states. It's really graphic and scary how they show the way US and British troops treating the prisoners, most are not even formally charged with anything.

I hope people go see it...
