You Can Go Now

Jawed Ahmad, an Afghan journalist employed by the Candian broadcaster CTV, has been released from imprisonment without charge at the US military base at Bagram Airbase. Good times were reportedly had by all over the course of his eleven month American vacation, with Ahmad routinely being kicked, face-smashed against tables, made to stand in the snow barefoot, and at one point, forced to stay awake for nine days in a row. Does this guy know how to party or what?

When asked what the first thing was that he'd do when he got home, he replied: "Take a nap!" [Salon]
