Guantanamo Bay : President Obama ordered its closure and hence the story of Guantanamo will soon be history. Why the Americans had to have an island of Non Judicial custody is not very clear. But whatever ,it created a black spot on its own very American Freedom Values and the statue of Liberty, with which the US is so famously known.
The GB will close down, but I found it very hilarious, when every country openly criticized the GB. I want to ask each and every at least Third World country, if they don't have a GB embedded in their own Prisons.
Let Amnesty International present a report on how many inmates in each country are without trial and for how many years.
Will now after the action of President Obama, each and every country allow a free access to Human Rights group to the prisons and check on how many more GB need to be shut down.
I am sure, interesting results will come out. while GB would have around 500 inmates in its peak, the rest each country will show a result far far higher then this number and third world the inmates could be unimaginable.
Hope, someday one and all GB are shut.
Wow. I oppoose the secret CIA torture prisons and guantamo, but have never thought of it in terms of the US was only doing what several other nations have done.
ReplyDeleteNot that it makes it right to do.
I agree, every guantanamo needs to be shut down, not just the ones run by the US (there are secret versions too)
