"In part two of our exclusive interview, Sami al-Hajj — the Al Jazeera journalist
imprisoned and tortured at Guantánamo for six years — describes how he waged a
438-day hunger strike to protest his detention. Al-Hajj was arrested in Pakistan
in December of 2001 while traveling to Afghanistan on a work assignment. Held
for six years without charge, al-Hajj was repeatedly tortured, hooded, attacked

hunger strike from January 2007 until his release in May 2008. Click
