Traumatic Brain Injuries can completely fragment someone, affecting them physically, emotionally, and cognitively. #TBI survivors spend the rest of their lives trying to put the pieces back together. #TBIAwareness #BrainInjuryAwareness #BrainInjury #InvisibleDisability
People with #TBI may appear healthy with #InvisibleInjuries still engaging in everyday life. Beneath the surface: Memory loss, chronic pain, insomnia, brain fog, trouble communicating, dizziness, confusion.#InvisibleDisabilities #TBIAwareness #BrainInjuryAwareness #BrainInjury
You know what the first best step would have been to combat Islamophobia? -Not set up a separate prison and legal system for Muslims at Guantanamo Bay. You know what the next best step would be now, instead of this sock puppet strategy? -Close Guantanamo Bay.

"Nearly 22 years after detainees were held in dog cages at Camp X-Ray, President Biden must recognize that no human being, regardless of color or religion, is outside protection of the law." lawfaremedia.org/article/the-un…
@marijasilber raises the US’ failure to close Guantanamo Bay, the illegality of the military commissions, and the desperate need for medical care for the detainees. @UNHumanRights
Committee member Surlan asks what measures at being taken to protect prevent the use of torture-tainted evidence - following @CIA torture - at the Guantanamo military commissions. 🔥 🔥 🔥 @DeptofDefense
@NiAolainF @DeptofDefense @marijasilber @DeptofDefense does not answer question about use of torture-tainted evidence at the military commissions, prob because there is no defense under domestic or intl law.
@TheJusticeDept seems to say DOJ can't prosecute post-9/11 US torture b/c it happened outside the US. USG told HRC in 2015 that all US personnel are "prohibited under U.S. law and policy from engaging in torture or [CIDT] regardless of location."
Surlan cites Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism, Fionnuala Ní Aoláin’s findings of inadequate medical treatment and rehabilitation for torture. Full report here: ohchr.org/sites/default/…
"Looking forward, not backwards" and all that. Not a great look given all the US rhetoric about accountability for Russian atrocities in Ukraine. Accountability for thee, not for me.

What justice? The state-sponsored torture and resulting failure to ever have a 9/11 trial? The broken Muslim men - some still at Guantanamo - most of whom never faced charges? The illegal military commissions that sacrifice the values we claim are under attack from outsiders?

This is what we - and some Gitmo medical personnel including the former Chief Medical Officer - have demanded for years. @BaluchiGitmo is deteriorating rapidly without appropriate medical care which the USG refuses to provide at Gitmo.

Within the first 30 minutes of the Human Rights Committee’s presentation, the US delegation is questioned by @MarciaVJKRAN1 on their position that the ICCPR does not apply at Guantanamo. I wrote yesterday about how/why the USG should change this position now 👇🏾

@DPInfoCtr @DeathPenaltyP @WCADP @UNHumanRights Kran: No US govt officials have been held accountable for secret detention & torture. What plans does US have to investigate torture and hold people accountable for their participation?

Committee member Surlan asks what measures at being taken to protect prevent the use of torture-tainted evidence - following @CIA torture - at the Guantanamo military commissions. 🔥 🔥 🔥 @DeptofDefense
Day 2 of the US ICCPR review in Geneva opens with the US delegation answering questions HRC members posed at the end of day 1. Nobody on the delegation addresses @MarciaVJKRAN1's Qs about GTMO, post-9/11 US torture, or US use of lethal force outside recognized armed conflict.
@NiAolainF @DeptofDefense @marijasilber @DeptofDefense notes that Gitmo transfers are consistent with nonrefoulement obligations - does not mention case of Ravil Mingazov, slated to be moved from UAE to Russia, where he faces great risk of torture.
@NiAolainF @DeptofDefense @marijasilber @DeptofDefense does not answer question about use of torture-tainted evidence at the military commissions, prob because there is no defense under domestic or intl law.
@TheJusticeDept seems to say DOJ can't prosecute post-9/11 US torture b/c it happened outside the US. USG told HRC in 2015 that all US personnel are "prohibited under U.S. law and policy from engaging in torture or [CIDT] regardless of location."
1. James Mitchell testified abt how @CIA torture decisions were made in US. 2. Torture at Gitmo was under full effective control of USG; USG recognizes CAT application at GTMO. 3. I can easily make a prelim list of names/UFIs for prosecution within the hour. Lmk @TheJusticeDept

@UNHumanRights Šurlan asks the delegation to address the number and status of Guantanamo habeas corpus petitions.
@UNHumanRights committee member Surlan on Guantanamo closure — first you make a decision, then you implement.
US DoJ delegate states they have no knowledge of CIA RDI torture occurring in the US. Prosecutions can’t be pursued for acts committed abroad. No acknowledgement of the high-level government officials who approved use of ‘enhanced interrogation’ (torture) techniques.
US delegate failed to address the declassification or security cleared defense attorneys access to the SSCI report on the CIA Rendition, Detention, Interrogation (torture) program.
DoD delegate emphatically disagrees with portions of UN Special Rapporteur report citing GTMO detainees receive same med care as JTF GTMO military but notably fails to acknowledge emergent care handled off-island for mil. In 2019, the 9/11 MilCom’s judge was medevac’d to FL.
Surlan cites Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism, Fionnuala Ní Aoláin’s findings of inadequate medical treatment and rehabilitation for torture. Full report here: ohchr.org/sites/default/…
@UNHumanRights Committee member T. Surlan on Guantánamo — to US delegation: What are the remedies for those held without trial? 16 of 30 remaining men are eligible for release.
For all of USG’s handwringing over 2+ decades about how difficult/complicated it is to close GTMO, Committee member Surlan (correctly) cuts right to the chase: “It can be solved by making a decision and implementing it.”
"Looking forward, not backwards" and all that. Not a great look given all the US rhetoric about accountability for Russian atrocities in Ukraine. Accountability for thee, not for me.
Responding to HRC member @MarciaVJKRAN1’s critical questions about accountability, remedy, and redress for post-9/11 US torture, US officials don’t just avoid direct answers, they don’t once use any of the words accountability, remedy, redress or torture.
