CNN: Freed Gitmo prisoner sues U.S. for unlawful detention
...Iqbal is suing the U.S. government for unlawful detention.

“I am angry in my heart,” Iqbal said in a recent interview. “It’s easy
for the U.S. government to say, ‘There are no charges found and he’s free.’
“But who will be responsible for seven years of my life?”
If Iqbal wins it is the American taxpayer who will foot the bill.

In truth the bill should go to Bush, Cheney, and their neo con masters.
