I interviewed Carol Rosenberg, who covers the Guantanamo beat for the Miami Herald, because of this article she wrote;

WikiLeaks: How U.S. tried to stop Spain's torture probe


concerted effort by Bush Diplomats to derail investigation of a Spanish Judge...
ambassador and other senior US diplomats... Â

Blathasar  Garzà ³n is known as one of the most crusading human rights advocates in Europe-- called out arrest warrant for Pinochet

Spoke to Alberto Gonzalez

Value of wikileaks
demystifies diplomacy a fair amount
In terms of Guantanamo it shows just what a struggle it is...
