Islamic
leaders urge Obama to halt force feeding in Gitmo during Ramadan
A
US federal court has condemned the force-feeding of Guantanamo Bay
prisoners as a "painful, humiliating and degrading"
practice. But at the same hearing - the judge turned down a request
from one of the detainees to end the practice - ruling that the ONLY
person with the authority to make such a decision is President Obama.
And with no let-up to the situation at Guantanamo, one American
hip-hop artist - Mos Def - has decided to voluntarily subject himself
to force-feeding. Abby Martin found out how it went, in Breaking the
Set.
