Not that it completely surprises me because it involves Gitmo. I have no objections; just figured that perhaps everybody would like to know.

The FM is insisting that it's not an official document, and has apologized to both America and Israel for the list.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

It's crap that they issued an apology. It is documented and proven that both the United States and Israel use torture as a form of interrogation. They should be on the list, just like any other nation which employs the tactic.
