In May 2014, lawyers from the Londonbased international nonpro t organization Reprieve led a motion on behalf of Guantánamo Bay Detention Camp prisoner Abu Wa’el (Jihad) Dhiab to produce thirtytwo videotapes of Dhiab being forcibly extracted from his cell and forcefed in a restraint chair. Dhiab’s lawyer described his forcefeedings as being administered so incorrectly that he vomited repeatedly and lost consciousness. As a consequence, he suffered a chest infection, and his nostrils and throat were so raw that he had dif culty breathing. Then in 2015, the US government turned over, under seal, eight of the thirtytwo videos with the voices and faces of Guantánamo workers redacted. The Justice Department contends that releasing the videotapes would compromise national security, “spurring extremist attacks against US personnel or encouraging resistance by Guantánamo detainees,” and argues that the footage might provide too much visualization of “prison infrastructure” (Hsu 2015) or set an example for how other prisoners might best refuse their own forcefeedings. The case came to a close in 2017, when a threejudge panel of the Circuit Court of Washington, DC, ruled that the videotapes would remain under seal and not made public (see Worthington 2017). The state’s refusal to release the video footage illustrates the ways that geopolitics and race are mobilized to propagate a xenophobic panic that reauthorizes

监狱监督

2014 年 5 月，总部位于伦敦的国际非营利组织 Reprieve 的律师代表关塔那摩湾拘留营囚犯 Abu Wa'el (Jihad) Dhiab 发起了一项动议，要求制作 32 盘 Dhiab 被强行从牢房中取出并被强迫坐在束缚椅上的录像带. Dhiab 的律师称，他的强制喂食方式如此错误，以至于他反复呕吐并失去知觉。结果，他的胸部感染了，鼻孔和喉咙很粗糙，呼吸困难。然后在 2015 年，美国政府将关塔那摩工人的声音和面孔经过编辑的 32 段视频中的 8 段交给了美国政府，并盖上了章。司法部辩称，公开录像带会危害国家安全，“刺激对美国人员的极端主义袭击或鼓励关塔那摩被拘留者的抵抗”，并认为这些镜头可能提供了过多的“监狱基础设施”（Hsu 2015）的形象，或者为其他囚犯如何最好地拒绝他们自己的强制喂食树立了榜样。该案于 2017 年结束，当时华盛顿特区巡回法院的三名法官小组裁定录像带将保持密封且不公开（见 Worthington 2017）。该州拒绝发布视频片段说明了地缘政治和种族被动员以传播重新授权的仇外恐慌的方式 该案于 2017 年结束，当时华盛顿特区巡回法院的三名法官小组裁定录像带将保持密封且不公开（见 Worthington 2017）。该州拒绝发布视频片段说明了地缘政治和种族被动员以传播重新授权的仇外恐慌的方式 该案于 2017 年结束，当时华盛顿特区巡回法院的三名法官小组裁定录像带将保持密封且不公开（见 Worthington 2017）。该州拒绝发布视频片段说明了地缘政治和种族被动员以传播重新授权的仇外恐慌的方式
