That's what Colleen Graffy, Assistant Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy, said of the three detainees who committed suicide in their Guantanamo cells. Their lawyers say the suicides were the result of their despair at their situation.
In Graffy's view, there was no reason for the men to kill themselves as a protest, since they could have protested to their lawyers and families. I guess that she would have said the same of the dozens of detainees who have tried to commit suicide over the past few years.
