FYI:
Guantanamo Bay labels Fidel Castro "an admitted transexual".
WASHINGTON--The
US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay has been caught conducting
covert propaganda attacks on the internet. The attacks, exposed this
week in a report by the government transparency group Wikileaks,
include deleting detainee ID numbers from Wikipedia last month, the
systematic posting of unattributed "self praise" comments on news
organization web sites in response to negative press, boosting
pro-Guantanamo stories on the internet news site Digg and even
modifying Fidel Castro's encyclopedia article to describe the Cuban
president as "an admitted transexual".
