• ¿Cómo puede haber democracia si los dirigentes de Estados Unidos y Gran Bretaña no defienden los valores por los que la generación de mi padre luchó contra los nazis, millones de personas dieron su vida contra el régimen de la Unión Soviética? ¿Por qué? Por la democracia. Y lo que significaba la democracia. Sin tortura, sin campos, sin detención para siempre o sin juicio, sin cargos. En confinamiento solitario. Esas técnicas que no son sólo supuestas, de hecho han sido escritas por el FBI. No creo que sea ser de extrema izquierda -espero equivocarme al considerar que es de extrema izquierda defender el Estado de Derecho.

• The U.N. [the United Nations Working Group on Arbitrary Detention] has looked into this whole situation. They spent eighteen months in formal, adversarial litigation. [So it's] me and the U.N. verses Sweden and the U.K. Who's right? The U.N. made a conclusion that I am being arbitrarily detained illegally, deprived of my freedom and that what has occurred has not occurred within the laws that the United Kingdom and Sweden, and that [those countries] must obey. It is an illegal abuse.

• The second term of the Bush administration and first five years of the Obama presidency have been devoted to codifying and institutionalizing the vast and unchecked powers that are typically vested in leaders in the name of war. Those powers of secrecy, indefinite detention, mass surveillance, and due-process-free assassination are not going anywhere. They are now permanent fixtures not only in the US political system but, worse, in American political culture.
