I was ecstatic to hear that Al-Jazeera cameraman Sami Al-Hajj has been released today by American authorities after spending SIX and a half years in the prison at Guantanamo Bay. I previously blogged about his ordeal.

    I have posted the news as on Al-Jazeera website. Compare it with CNN and judge yourself if the US media is really as free as they claim.

    Al Jazeera cameraman Sami al-Hajj has hit out at the US treatment of detainees at the Guantanamo Bay military prison where he was held for nearly six and a half years.

    Saying that “rats are treated with more humanity”, al-Hajj said inmates’ “human dignity was violated”.

    Al-Hajj, who arrived in Sudan early on Friday, was carried off the US air force jet on a stretcher and immediately taken to hospital.

    Later, he had an emotional reunion with his wife and son.

    His brother, Asim al-Hajj, said he did not recognise the cameraman because he looked like a man in his 80s.
    Still, al-Hajj said: “I was lucky because God allowed that I be released.”

    But his attention soon turned to the 275 inmates he left behind in the US military prison.
