No it's not pretty clear Nadine unless you know for a fact.....which you don't, as you just said earlier All I know is that the officials at Gitmo said that when they sorted prisoners into "high risk, definitely terrorist", "medium risk" and "low risk", the British detainees fell into the first two catagories. The British papers have displayed the same burning interest into whether the incarceration had been for a cause, such as fighting with Al Qaeda, that they have displayed vis-a-vis the prisoners in Abu Ghraib. That is to say, no interest whatsover. The released prisoners say that they are all innocent lambs subject to vile abuse, hey, that's good enough for the Guardian to go with. If you would like to know if these guys had a history of radical Islamist affiliation before they left Britain, or had been talking or working for jihad (as many British Islamists do quite openly), you're out of luck because no English reporter will ask those questions.
