Guantanamo forcefeeding

This video (outside US embassy in London- October 2005) shows what forcefeeding of a hungerstriker looks like. The 'methods' used are based entirely on those of the Guantanamo doctors in their sworn affidavits right down to the size of tube used. The video shows a "four-point" restraint. Does this look like humane treatment?

im pretty sure the medical staff of guantanamo yould disagree with you , you live in a pink world .

japanese soldiers used to intubate their prisoners and fill them with water , and either let him die by brain edema , or fill his intestine and stomb his belly to rupture his peritonium .and these are angels compared to ppl in gtmo.

If he doesn't want to eat I would say that's his problem...

correction: this is a two-point restraint... and a bad one, at that. any trainted medical personnel knows that restraints should be "five points or no points."

also, I'm pretty certain they would not do an intubation on a combative individual... it's entirely too unsafe... any MD would refuse to do it until the individual was chemically restrained.

[[my entirely non-political, medical two cents...]]
