The dehumanization machinery institutionalized at Guantánamo persists beyond Abu Ghraib.

Evidence

The post-human condition of Muslims is something that has yet to be undone. At the writing of this book, GTMO was still open; and lest we forget, the commander who came to “Gitmo-ize” Abu Ghraib, Major General Geoffrey Miller, was transferred from Guantánamo Bay, suggesting that what we know of Abu Ghraib has happened before and will happen again. Abu Ghraib and GTMO are but two cogs in the large and complex machinery of hate and dehumanization. In these spaces, the obliteration of Muslim humanity is complete. — Sophia Rose Arjana, Muslims in the Western Imagination, 758
