The U.S. is holding 500 at the base in wire cages at the Bagram Air
Base, north of Kabul in Afghanistan. Some have been detained for up to
three years. They have never been charged with crimes. They have no
access to lawyers. They are barred from hearing the allegations against
them. Officials describe the jail's conditions as primitive. We speak
with human rights attorneys Clive Stafford Smith and Michael
Ratner.
