Its quite an interesting article for sure..though really long. In short its about this journalist who gets imprisoned in a political jail an Yemen and he relates his experiences there among prisoners who are suspected "Jihadists" Oh and by his admission these prisons are run by the Yemeni gov with the help of Americans. That's what it is in a nutshell and if you want more details do what I did and read the article! Just don't attempt it as you wake up, during mid day and last thing at night. If you do then "the gnome" might be all you will grasp!
