That particular camp\u2014Camp X-Ray\u2014was closed after operating just a few months in 2002, but those early images and stories of alleged torture and wrongful imprisonment at Gitmo continue to linger in the American and global psyche.<\/p>\n<p>In all, the Guantanamo prison has housed more than 750 detainees since former President George W. Bush opened it in early 2002, in the aftermath of the September 11 terror attacks of the previous year. At its height in 2003, the prison held 684 men. Holding people at Guantanamo is not without precedence. Former presidents <a href=\"http:\/\/www.slate.com\/articles\/news_and_politics\/jurisprudence\/2005\/12\/clintons_guantanamo.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">George Bush Sr. and Bill Clinton<\/a> allowed the detainment there of tens of thousands of Haitian and Cuban refugees seeking U.S. asylum in the 1990s.<\/p>\n<p>In the years since 2002, hundreds of prisoners have been released and moved to other nations. Of the 41 remaining detainees, 5 are&nbsp;cleared for release, but &nbsp;still imprisoned because authorities have yet to find nations that will take them in and ensure that certain security conditions are met.<\/p>\n<p>Another 26 detainees are being held without charge, but are deemed too dangerous to be released. The Periodic Review Board, which serves as a parole board for Guant\u00e1namo detainees, has recommended these men for \u201ccontinued detention under the law of war.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The remaining 10 detainees are facing military commissions, including five accused of plotting the September 11 terror attacks. These men are considered high-value detainees and are separated from the rest of the prison population in a building known as \u201cCamp 7.\u201d Residents of this camp include Khalid Sheikh Mohammad, believed to be the chief architect of the 9\/11 attacks.<\/p>\n<p>As of October 2016, all the prisoners were considered \u201ccompliant,\u201d meaning they had non-disciplinary status and are able to roam in communal spaces within the prison confines for 22 hours a day. This has not always been the case at Gitmo. One conference room features a display of confiscated weapons made by detainees such as a faucet head shank.[\/vc_wp_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row foundry_padding=&#8221;pt64 pb64&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1484841558020{padding-top: 16px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_wp_text title=&#8221;WATCH: For Guantanamo detainees, it\u2019s a life of \u2018waiting\u2019 for freedom&#8221;]<div class=\"kaltura-vid-container initial-pause\"><span class=\"play-icon dashicons dashicons-video-alt3\"><\/span><div class=\"vid-title\"><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-info\"><\/span><\/div><img class=\"vid-logo\" src=\"https:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/themes\/foundry\/img\/cgtn-logo-white.png\"><div class=\"vid-desc\"><h4><\/h4><span class=\"dashicons dashicons-dismiss\"><\/span><\/div><video controls poster=\"http:\/\/cfvod.kaltura.com\/p\/1679301\/sp\/167930100\/thumbnail\/entry_id\/1_omycoh2t\/version\/100001\/acv\/171\/width\/632\/height\/461\"class=\"kaltura-vid paused\" src=\"\" type=\"video\/mp4\"><\/video><\/div><p><video preload=\"none\" data-fb-disable-autoplay controls style=\"display: none;\" poster=\"http:\/\/cfvod.kaltura.com\/p\/1679301\/sp\/167930100\/thumbnail\/entry_id\/1_omycoh2t\/version\/100001\/acv\/171\/width\/632\/height\/461\" class=\"post-load-hide\" src=\"\" type=\"video\/mp4\"><\/video><\/p>[\/vc_wp_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row foundry_padding=&#8221;pt64 pb64&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1484841316549{padding-top: 16px !important;padding-bottom: 32px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_wp_text]Inside the prison perimeter, additional attention has been paid to the health of the now-aging prisoner population.

It\u2019s also where prisoners on hunger strikes are sent for forced feedings.&nbsp; A chair with arm and leg restraints sits next to a table lined with liquid meal replacements and feeding tubes. The medical staff proudly tells journalists that detainees have a choice in the lubrication used to ease the feeding tube down their throats.&nbsp; A new addition is olive oil.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2294\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2294\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-large wp-image-2294\" src=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"intensive care unit\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6209-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2294\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The intensive care unit at Camp ECHO, which is part of the medical facility available to detainees on a regular basis.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>While the U.S. government maintains conditions at Guantanamo are safe and humane, lawyers and advocates for the prisoners say continued detention has had a crippling effect on many detainees. They say there\u2019s also anxiety over their unknown futures.<\/p>\n<p>One detainee,&nbsp;Mohammed Bwazir, had been cleared for transfer to a European host country in January 2016, after being held without charge at Guantanamo for 15 years.<\/p>\n<p>On his release date, Bwazir walked out of the prison and stepped onto the ramp to the military plane that would deliver him to freedom, when he felt&nbsp;so much anxiety that he turned around and returned to life behind bars.<\/p>\n<p>He said he was overwhelmed about&nbsp;moving to a country with a foreign language and culture, and with no access to his family, his lawyer John Chandler told the Miami Herald.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>A year later, in the waning weeks of Obama\u2019s term, Bwazir was one of four Yemenis transferred to Saudi Arabia \u2014 where Bwazir\u2019s family were waiting for him.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to give back to my family the 15 years I lost,\u201d he said, upon arriving in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>Anxiety and depression are common in Guantanamo. In its 15-year history, seven deaths have been ruled suicides. The medical facility has made psychiatrists and counselors available to the detainees 24 hours a day, seven days a week.<\/p>\n<p>In 2012, Adnan Farhan Abdul Latif&nbsp;died while in solitary confinement. Latif was 36 years old and had spent more than 10 years imprisoned at Guantanamo. The U.S. military ruled that Latif committed suicide with an overdose of prescription medication, complicated by pneumonia.<\/p>\n<p>Remes, his lawyer, does not believe it was a suicide. Remes said he met with the detainee\u2019s family in Yemen five years before Latif\u2019s death, at a time when he was on a hunger strike to protest his detention without charge at Guantanamo.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNobody believed that he had committed suicide,\u201d Remes said. \u201cAnd the cause of death, while it has been ruled a suicide, it\u2019s clear that it has been caused by ingesting an excessive amount of medication. But people don\u2019t know what his motivation was, and how he could have amassed the medication in the first place, given the security he was under.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2304\" style=\"width: 970px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/07\/160505_Adnan_Latif1.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2304\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2304\" src=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/07\/160505_Adnan_Latif1.jpg\" alt=\"Adnan Farhan Abdul Latif\" width=\"960\" height=\"555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/07\/160505_Adnan_Latif1.jpg 960w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/07\/160505_Adnan_Latif1-300x173.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2015\/07\/160505_Adnan_Latif1-768x444.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2304\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">In 2012, Adnan Farhan Abdul Latif died while in solitary confinement.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>But the Pentagon stands by its suicide determination, a spokesman saying it did not have \u201canything to add to the US military assessment of what happened.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As of October 2016, the medical staff said no detainees had mental health concerns, according to Navy Commander Robert Sylvester, who runs the Guantanamo medical facility.<\/p>\n<p>For Remes, the concept of providing mental health treatment at Guantanamo is a \u201csham.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a fundamental contradiction in providing mental health for\u2026 people who have been brutalized,\u201d Remes said. \u201cThe goal wasn\u2019t to treat these men, seriously, it was to subdue them.\u201d[\/vc_wp_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row foundry_padding=&#8221;pt0&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1484613016088{padding-top: 32px !important;padding-bottom: 32px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=&#8221;top-to-bottom&#8221;]<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2285\" style=\"width: 2410px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452.jpg\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2285\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-2285\" src=\"http:\/\/gitmo.cgtnamerica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452.jpg\" alt=\"Detainees line up for evening prayer\" width=\"2400\" height=\"1350\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cgtnamericasub.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/01\/IMG_6452-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2285\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Detainees line up for evening prayer at Camp 6.
