<p>Mandela hadn’t been seen in public since his latest brush with ill health last month. But now he's emerged in pictures taken at his home on Monday, flanked by current leaders of his African National Congress party, including South African President Jacob</p> <p>Rather than comforting, though, the pictures have sparked outrage on social media in the Rainbow Nation.</p> <p>Zuma and the other leaders are accused of exploiting the ailing leader, putting a frail and uncomfortable 94-year old on public display.</p> <p>The incident comes on top of Mandela's own family mining his legacy. His granddaughters appear in a reality show called "Being Mandela," in which the family shows the business of Mandela-branded wines and clothing lines.</p> <p>Eusebius McKaiser is a South African political analyst and an expert in moral philosophy, and he says neither the photos of Mandela nor the outrage surprise him.</p> <p> <a

CNN</strong></p> <p>For the first time in recent memory, the forgotten detainees at the U.S. military prison in Guantanamo Bay are getting the world's attention.</p> <p>The U.S. government acknowledges that 100 prisoners are on hunger strikes, though defense attorneys think that number is considerably higher. Just last month, officials said the number was only 31 prisoners.</p> <p>Officials say medical staff are force feeding 21 prisoners who are at the greatest risk of starving themselves to death – an invasive process that involves running a tube through the nasal passage into the stomach and then feeding the patient a nutritional supplement.
