Two new films which expose unpleasant truths about Guantanamo and the
battle for Iraq are coming under pressure from censors in the United
States.
The Motion Pictures Association of America has censored a poster
advertising a film about the Tipton three, called The Road to
Guantanamo, that showed a hooded and blindfolded man hanging by his
shackled wrists. Also, the makers of Baghdad ER, a documentary about a
US military combat hospital, told the Guardian yesterday that Francis
Harvey, the secretary of the army, had demanded last-minute changes to
the film.
