The Camp Delta document includes schematics of the camp, detailed checklists of what "comfort items" such as extra toilet paper can be given to detainees as rewards, six pages of instructions on how to process new detainees, instructions on how to psychologically manipulate prisoners, and rules for dealing with hunger strikes.
"What strikes me is the level of detail for handling all kind of situations, from admission to barbers and burials," says Jamil Dakwar, advocacy director of the ACLU's Human Rights program. Dakwar was in Guantanamo last week for a military-commission hearing.
And just in case the document gets pulled from the site, here's a direct link to it being hosted on my servers.
I've read over the document and I haven't found much in terms of "torture" or any other interrogation techniques, so if you're looking for that, save your time. However, it does read like a stereotypical prison manual, for which I have seen similar manuals before.
All in all an excellent read about what goes on inside of Guantanamo Bay, but it is quite lengthy.
