CHICAGO Illinois Senator Dick Durbin says he won't apologize for comments comparing American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, to Nazis, Pol Pot and Soviet gulags, 50 million people were killed by the Nazis, Pol Pot, Soviet's and China, but what were doing in Gitmo is worse, were making them eat honey-glazed chicken or lemon-baked fish, served with whole wheat pita, various vegetables and fruit.
