Apparently the United Nations is trying to mollycoddle terrorists again.

Detainees in US custody at Guantanamo Bay risk developing "irreversible psychiatric symptoms", UN human rights investigators have warned.

They argue conditions at the prison - especially long-term solitary detention - may endanger inmates' mental health.

The six experts noted certain positive moves at Guantanamo in 2004, including some detainees' release, but said these failed to dispel "serious concerns".

Perhaps the "irreversible psychiatric symptoms" stem from guilt? Somehow, though, I doubt that very much.
