This man was taken to Guantanamo Bay without having committed any crime whatsoever. When the mistake was found out, he was told that he still had to go to GB for a duration or he’d have to lie and claim having a link with Osama Bin Laden.
That is what the Guantanamo Bay has done all these years. Thank you, Mr. Bush, for torturing hundreds of Muslims and lying to the world.
And my faith in this country fades more and more as time passes….
The National Defense Authorization Act of 2012, signed by President Obama yesterday, December 31st, prohibits the military from transferring detainees to U.S. prisons. This, in addition to a number of other provisions, essentially ensures that the Guantanamo Bay prison will never be closed.
God bless America.

"Know how to leave things to one side, for if knowing how to refuse is one of life’s great lessons, an even greater one is knowing how to say no to yourself, to important people, and in business. There are non-essential activities, moths of precious time, and it’s worse to take an interest in irrelevant things than do nothing at all. To be circumspect, it’s not enough to interfere; it’s more important to make sure others don’t interfere in your affairs. Don’t so belong to others that you don’t belong to yourself. Even friends should not be abused; you shouldn’t want more from them than they’re willing to concede. Any extreme is a vice, and especially in dealings with others. Sensible moderation is the best way to maintain goodwill and respect because ever-precious dignity won’t be worn away. Be free in spirit, passionate about all that’s fine, and never sin against your own good taste."
