Guantanamo detainee Shaker Aamer touched down in London today. He was the last British detainee held at Guantanamo Bay. Aamer was held there for nearly 14 years without charges or a trial. Military officials have portrayed Aamer as a dangerous Islamic terrorist, but there was never proof or charges brought. Human rights advocates are calling him a victim of the war on terror. At Guantanamo, Aamer served as an unofficial spokesman for detainees, drawing attention to life inside the prison, leading to a mass hunger strike at the prison. We hear more about his story, and what it portends for the future of Guantanamo.
