US Hasn't Apologized To or Compensated Ex-Detainees

WASHINGTON - To date, the U.S. government hasn't given any former detainee financial compensation or apologized for wrongfully imprisoning him, shipping him around the world and holding him without legal recourse.

The 38 former Guantanamo detainees who've been found to be no longer enemy combatants by tribunal hearings - the closest the military has come to admitting that it detained some innocent men - were flown out of Cuba with nothing but the clothes on their backs and assorted items such as copies of the Quran and shampoo bottles that the U.S. military issued to them.
