Blumont, a Virginia-based humanitarian aid group responsible for the management of two of Syria’s IS detention camps, al-Hol and al-Roj, was given a stop-work order on 24 January by the US state department.
The camp holds the relatives of suspected IS fighters and is mostly populated by women and children. Rights groups have for years warned that detainees are held arbitrarily without charges in inhumane and substandard living conditions.
No charges have been raised against the camp’s population. Despite this, they are unable to leave, with the exception of non-Syrian detainees whose countries agree to take them back.

Interesting. AP leaves out the word “alleged” from the title and mentions it later in the article.
Associated Propaganda doing a bang on job of lying even harder than TheGuardian.
For anybody curious what’s going on in this region I highly recommend the podcast The Woman’s War. Its a great listen by the same guy who does Behind the Bastards.
Yeah I edited that title. TheGuardian can take a hike on this one.
I usually dislike this sort of editorialising, but you’ve pointed it out, and I can’t say I disagree.
people detained in tented camps
If we’re calling the “tented camps” at Guantanamo concentration camps, then these definitely qualify as well.
The legacy media’s failure to call Nazi salutes and concentration camps what they are is irresponsible and dangerous.
The only thing you could further do is mention that you’ve editorialised the title in the title itself by [tagging] it.
Tankies running cover for ISIS is a low… Not a new low… But a definite low.
Should anyone with a relative suspected to be in ISIS be considered guilty by association?
Techonocrit is a suspected ISIS member.
Children are ISIS by virtue of blood? Libs have always been nazi apologists but yall don’t even try to be sneaky anymore
