The head of Amnesty International now says that despite their outrageous comparison of Gitmo to the Soviet Gulag, they really don’t know what’s going on there: ‘Don’t know for sure’ about Guantanamo: Amnesty USA. (Hat tip: LGF readers.)

And despite their accusation that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is “a high-level architect of torture,” they have no idea if that’s true either.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Despite highly publicized charges of U.S. mistreatment of prisoners at Guantanamo, the head of the Amnesty International USA said on Sunday the group doesn’t “know for sure” that the military is running a “gulag.”

Executive Director William Schulz said Amnesty, often cited worldwide for documenting human rights abuses, also did not know whether Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld approved severe torture methods such as beatings and starvation.

Schulz recently dubbed Rumsfeld an “apparent high-level architect of torture” in asserting he approved interrogation methods that violated international law.

“It would be fascinating to find out. I have no idea,” Schulz told “Fox News Sunday.”
