asymmetric warfare
On June 10, 2006, three detainees were found dead. According to Pentagon they "killed themselves in an apparent suicide pact".[73] Prison commander Rear Admiral Harry Harris has stated: "This was not an act of desperation, but an act of asymmetric warfare committed against us." [74] The three detainees hanged themselves with nooses made of sheets and clothes. According to military officials, the suicides were coordinated acts of protests, but human rights activists and defense attorneys said the deaths signaled the desperation of many of the detainees. http://encyclopedia.thefreedictionary.com/Guantanamo Bay detainment camp |
