On April 13, guards violently attacked them. They were moving them to single-cell confinement.
"Less than lethal rounds" were fired. It's unclear if live ammunition was used. Pentagon reports are duplicitous. Lies substitute for truth.
According to Navy Captain Robert Durand:
"Some detainees resisted with improvised weapons, and in response, four less-than-lethal rounds were fired."
Officials say no guards or detainees were seriously injured. There's no way knowing for sure. Reliable information is suppressed. Washington prefers not acknowledging Guantanamo exists. It denies what remains ongoing.
Council for one detainee, Cindy Panuco, said it's virtually impossible for prisoners to obtain makeshift or other type weapons.
They have little more than ballpoint pen inserts. They're plastic, small, and straw-like. They're unable to inflict harm.
Regular searches seize anything suspicious. Prisoners are defenseless. Guards are omnipotent. They have whatever weapons and other equipment they need.
