Gitmo hunger strike of over 100 mostly innocent detainees hits fifth week and counting (VIDEO)

For approximately five weeks, over 100 detainees at Guantanamo Bay have been participating in a large scale hunger strike.

The demonstration was sparked after the US military confiscated personal belongings of inmates including the Muslim holy book Koran.

The Joint Task Force at Guantanamo has released a statement claiming that the conditions at Gitmo have not deteriorated and reports alleging otherwise are "patently false."

Pardiss Kabriaei with the Center for Constitutional Rights joins us with more on how much longer could this hunger strike really last.
