I think it's pretty safe to say that we can't trust any of these assertions. There is no independant oversite of Guantanamo (by the Red Cross, for example). The government in charge has partially renounced it's commitment to the Geneva conventions. Allegations of torture by the prisoners are dismissed without investigation. Our own government is trying to redefine "torture" to exclude the forms of torture in use by the US government.

Rule of law? We don't need no stiiinking rule of law!
