註釋
"Peter Jan Honigsberg has written a magnificent book telling the story of what has occurred since September 11, 2001, and how the Bush administration has betrayed the most basic principles of constitutional law and international human rights protections. He tells the story of Guantanamo in moving, human terms, and he also shows how it relates to the other abuses that have occurred over the last seven years."--Erwin Chemerinsky, from the foreword
"In weaving compelling human stories and a meticulously researched chronology of violations of the rule of law and human rights since 9/11, Honigsberg has written a moving and powerful narrative of how we lost our constitutional and moral compass."--Sister Helen Prejean, author of
Dead Man Walking
"National security is the last refuge of tyrants, and Peter Jan Honigsberg documents the full frontal assault on civil liberties in the United States perpetrated in the name of national security by Bush, Cheney and their partners in crime. Unlawful detention, imprisonment without trial for years on end, and outsourcing torture, are among the litany of horrors committed against the innocent. This book should be mandatory reading for all registered voters."--Kerry Kennedy, Founder of The Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Center for Human Rights
