Most of those released from Gitmo have gone right back to the battlefield.

Yeah...close Gitmo and they'll throw flowers at our feet.
Wise up.

Do you have a link, is it "most" or "some", since when so we intern people for this length of time without charges.

GITMO is a fine prison, if it ever closes it would make a great vacation resort without much modification.

The stone age neandrethal countries can think whatever they are told to think by their radical religious leaders.

Sure, we are going to appease these terrorist cowards if we close GITMO....what is the next brilliant suggestion to achieve world peace.

As far as the middle east goes, the leadership may as well be from Mars as they have nothing in common with the civilized world.

Hope the hunger strike contnues.

When they are all dead.

I do not know how accurate your info is as far as "return-to-field-of-battle" but many being held were innocent and have been cleared to be released, no one should be held in prison based on someone thinking they might turn to violence in the future.

It would also help with our image in Latin America! Maintaining a Gulag in Fidel and Raul's nice little country belies everything we stand for. How is Guantanamo all that different from Cuba's prison on the Isle of Youth (once called the Isle of Pines)?
