By Micah Halpern
Sunday August 30, 2009 I've Been Thinking: The Obama Administration is continuing its efforts to close Guantanamo. Closing a prison in Cuba specifically deigned to hold terrorists who threaten the United States is no easy task. How about Portugal? How did Portugal become a haven for Syrian prisoners in a US military prison? The prisoners pleaded and begged not to be sent to back to Syria. They argued that they feared arrest and torture at the hands of the Syrian regime if they were returned to Damascus. So US authorities found a Portuguese alternative. So far, the Guantanamo prisoner relocation plan has not proven effective. That's what happened in Yemen and in Afghanistan. Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click. 4 June 2017 12:13 PM in Thoughts
