| Thread: Guantanamo farce continues... |
Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

gtmo is a stain not only on the military but on the country as a whole. there isn't much i would put past the US govt., esp. when it is in the hands of cocksuckers like bush and cheney. so, i can believe the stories of mistreatment and the allegations that information that would exonerate accused persons has been withheld from their defense. as long as bush and company can keep up the pretense that they are being tough on terrorists, i doubt they really give a sh*t about things like fair trials and decent treatment. |

From what I understand, most of the detainees at Gitmo have already been cleared for release. |
