(AP)  Somewhere amid the cactus-studded hills on this sprawling Navy base, separate from the cells where hundreds of men suspected of links to al Qaeda and the Taliban have been locked up for years, is a place even more closely guarded - a jailhouse so protected that its very location is top secret.

For the first time, the top commander of detention operations at Guantanamo has confirmed the existence of the mysterious Camp 7. In an interview with The Associated Press, Rear Adm. Mark Buzby also provided a few details about the maximum-security lockup.

Guantanamo commanders said Camp 7 is for key alleged al Qaeda members, who must be kept apart from other prisoners to prevent them from retaliating against long-term detainees who have talked to interrogators. They also want the location kept secret for fear of terrorist attack.

Many operations have been classified since the detention center opened in January 2002 in the wake of the Sept. 11 attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. More than four years passed before the military released even the names of detainees held on this 45-square-mile base in southeast Cuba - and it did so only after the AP filed a Freedom of Information Act request.

Detainees have been held in Camp Echo and Camps 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Journalists cleared by the military have been allowed to tour some of these lockups, where 260 men are held, but aren't allowed to speak to detainees. Some lawmakers and other VIPs have passed through, and the International Red Cross has access, but doesn't divulge details of visits with prisoners.

Camp 7, where 15 "high-value detainees" are held, is so secret that its very existence was not publicly known until it was mentioned in December by attorneys for Majid Khan, a former Baltimore resident who allegedly plotted to bomb gas stations in the United States. Previously, many observers believed the 15 were being held in Camps 5 or 6, which are maximum-security facilities.

"Under the gag order ... we are prohibited from saying anything more about their camp," lawyer Gitanjali Gutierrez, who met with Khan in October, said Tuesday. Most of the lawyers' notes and memos have been stamped "top secret" by the government.

Buzby told the AP he is sharply limiting to a "very few" the number of people who know Camp 7's whereabouts.

He described it as a maximum security facility that was already built when President Bush announced in September 2006 that 14 high-value terrorism suspects had been transferred from CIA secret detention facilities to Guantanamo. An additional detainee, Abd al-Hadi al-Iraqi, arrived last April.

"They went straight into that facility," Buzby said.

Buzby, who heads all military detention operations on Guantanamo, said he controls Camp 7, but would not discuss whether the CIA might still be talking with the high-value detainees.

Paul Rester, the military's chief interrogator at Guantanamo, told AP he has been interviewing one of the Camp 7 detainees and that others may be interrogated, depending on intelligence needs.

Quote

Not everybody, even within the Joint Task Force, has access or even knowledge of where Camp 7 is.

Army Col. Bruce Vargo
But other key military commanders on the base have been told to leave Camp 7 to others.

"Not everybody, even within the Joint Task Force, has access or even knowledge of where Camp 7 is," said Army Col. Bruce Vargo. As commander of the military's Joint Detention Group at Guantanamo, Vargo is responsible for the camps holding 260 detainees. But not for Camp 7.

Red Cross representatives have visited Camp 7 and all the other detention facilities at Guantanamo, confirmed Geoff Loane, head of the humanitarian organization's delegation in Washington. He declined to give details.

Buzby said the 15 are kept isolated in part to protect other prisoners. "Detainees have told us a lot of things about this group of people, and if there were potential for retribution it would be a very, very dangerous situation," he said.

For his part, Vargo said he is preoccupied by the possibility of an al Qaeda attack on Guantanamo.

"Although we are trying to be open, security is paramount," he said. "I mean, if you can fly a plane into the towers, you can attack Guantanamo if that's what you choose to do. It's something I think about on a day-to-day basis."

Vargo declined to discuss whether the U.S. has received information that al Qaeda may be planning such an attack. "We have intelligence reports, but I don't want to release what we know for obvious reasons," he said.

While some military personnel have reportedly grumbled about being kept out of the loop, others don't mind.

Army Col. Larry James, whose team of psychologists assists interrogators, said he does not want to know where Camp 7 is.

"I learned a long, long time ago, if I'm going to be successful in the intel community, I'm meticulously - in a very, very dedicated way - going to stay in my lane," he said. "So if I don't have a specific need to know about something, I don't want to know about it. I don't ask about it."

This guy sounds like an ideal Bush regime dupe. He sounds like he has the integrity of a rabid ostrich.

The fact that he is aiding in terror operations against those who are being illegally held at this facility makes him an embarrassment to our military and our country.

The fact that he is doing so for the illegitimate, criminal Regime, and is maintaining an intentional ignorance about it, makes him an embarrassment to the human race.

Under the Bush-Cheney administration the government of the United States of America has come full circle and employed reprehensible policies that we long condemned when perpetrated by the old Soviet Union, Nazi Germany, and other totalitarian states. They have not only condemned men to open-ended incarceration without benefit of trial but have also invaded the privacy of American citizens.Their names, George W. Bush and *** Cheney, will ever live in infamy alongside those of other tyrants.

Ummm, what makes you believe they are terrorists?

Or have committed any crimes at all?

I mean honestly, you don''t even know their names, and they haven''t been charged with any crime.

All we know is that they are human beings who have been illegally abducted and indefinitely incarcerated in secret prisons without charge or representation where they are subject to institutionalized torture and murder.

Just like in China, Cuba, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Pakistan, Iran, or the old Soviet Union.

Answer, intelligent, competent, journalists that are doing the ugly foot work that we don''t have time for to expose a corrupt government. I know that you are someone like Army Col. Larry James who just wants to live life with their head in the sand. But true Americans want and need to know what their government is up to. I happen to have confidence in America to protect it''s self without compromising it''s morals and engaging in torture, at least I did before Bush became a dictator. As for, why should we worry about terrorists? If they really were terrorists and no doubt about their guilt, try them convict them and sentence them or let them go and do it in an open court.

Secret prisons within secret prisons, torture by another name...This keeps getting worse and worse. Let''s just shut the whole place down and give it back to Fidel. The whole base. It''s now synonymous with US TORTURE.

Anyway, it sounds like Israel''s super-secret Camp 1391, which I''m guessing is at about 33.34.45 North/ 35.10.50 east--they hate to get press about it. But p1ss on them.

With the passage of time, I cannot imagine what would be the value of any detainee. Certainly they would not have current intel.

My guess? Camp 7 holds the terrorists with direct ties to the Bush/Cheney administration. To expose them would verify the long-circulated rumor that 9/11 was an "inside job".

They say only about 1 in 1,000 Americans can name the 5 rights guaranteed to all of us by the 1st Amendment.
Freedom of speech
Freedom of religion
Freedom of the press
Freedom to assemble
Freedom to petition the government
In America, 1 out of 1,000 is about 300,000 people.
These could be some of the first to be called "enemy combatants" and get shipped off to the camps.

Mirror

My friends, sometimes the most difficult thing about fighting evil is realizing that it actually exists, and then unambiguously and forcefully calling it what it is.

History shows time and time again that one of evils greatest strengths is its ability to disguise itself as good, or at least a temporary necessity, until that last fatal moment when its revelation becomes clear, indisputable, and inescapable.

So today let us take a clear and unadulterated look into the mirror at ourselves.

Just six years ago we were one of the most respected and admired defenders of democracy and human rights in history. Respected not only by our friends, but even begrudgingly by most of our enemies. In fact, even the fantastic power of our military paled in comparison to the overwhelming might of our moral authority.

Today we are a nation that operates secret prisons occupied by anonymous inmates, illegally abducted and held indefinitely without charge or representation. We are guilty of torture. We are guilty of murder. We are guilty of preemptive war of conquest. We are guilty of the wholesale surveillance of our population, suppressing all hope of privacy and free dissent. And we are guilty of disgracing our nation through the abandonment of even our most basic precepts of morality.

If this is not evil, then nothing we have ever fought against is evil, and nothing we have ever fought for is good.

Then why don''t we put them on trial. If they are being held, like they are, then our government should have some kind of hard evidence proving their guilt. The trial should be a slam dunk, that is unless our government is lying to us, and is just holding and torturing these people because of a whim.
