"Two days after his inauguration in January 2009, Barack Obama, the US president, signed an executive order promising to close the US military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba within one year. But the deadline was missed, and today some 180 men are still being held at Guantanamo. Now many worry Guantanamo may not even close in Obama's first term, and might even stay open far into the future." Al Jazeera English - Focus - Guantanamo forever? Shame on you USA. Shame on you Obama..
hahaha! How are you even surprised? Reminds me of this: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5oX-8TbQhk0]YouTube - Larry David and the Weatherman[/ame]
I understand people are upset about GitMo, but from a pragmatic perspective it isn't that bad. Being in GitMo is wayyy better than being in a standard supermax.
