Maj. Gen. Geoffrey D. Miller says about 75 percent of the 660 detainees have confessed to terrorism involvement, with rewards and incentives boosting cooperation. Interrogations yield hundreds of intelligence pieces weekly, some guiding arrests and revealing recruitment methods. Critics argue the tribunals bypass U.S. constitutional protections, with attorneys and lawmakers urging fair process and accountability.
