I don't think prisons around the world are much different than the ones in Syria. The only difference is in the facade. Methods the authorities are using, whether they are more "civilized" "modernized" or not. Bastinado in Syrian prison or naked prisoners ordered to form a human pyramid in Abou Ghraib, prisons are not much different. The only difference would be, I guess, the lenses through which we are looking to the West or the East.
