Four reasons Obama won’t close the controversial prison soon.

When Barack Obama campaigned for the presidency he repeatedly promised to close the Guantanamo Bay detention center, where hundreds of terrorist suspects have been held since the beginning of the War on Terror. As recently as last Sunday, he told 60 Minutes that he intended to keep his promise. “I have said repeatedly that I intend to close Guantanamo, and I will follow through on that,” Obama said, adding that the planned closure was “part and parcel of an effort to regain America’s moral stature in the world.”

* Not one of the Gitmo inmates has been sentenced to 30 years of hard labour or execution; but the human rights activists are literally pissing themselves over the imaginary rights of these hard-core Islamo-loons who would kill thousands of infidels for the sake of Allah if only they had a chance

Guantanamo trials flout US legal fundamentals: critics

WASHINGTON (AFP) – The military “war crimes” commissions created to try US war-on-terror detainees held in Guantanamo bear only a partial resemblance to normal US courts and are heavily criticized for flouting fundamental principles of American law.

Khadr’s Gitmo ordeal played out in video

* CSIS agents warned him that family risked torture in Pakistan

* Video shows weeping Canadian Guantanamo inmate (Reuters weeps along..)

Here’s the video of Omar Khadr, the Islamic terrorist captured on a battlefield in Afghanistan after throwing a grenade that killed a US soldier, sobbing and weeping and feeling sorry for himself. This little SoB is a killer and his whole clan is involved in terrorism. And the left feels sorry for this piece of human waste?

A 16-year-old Omar Khadr is seen pulling at his hair, covering his face and shedding his tunic in stills taken from videotapes of Canadian officials interrogating the Toronto-born terror suspect in Guantanamo Bay in 2003. Omar Khadr was 15 when U.S. forces seized him in Afghanistan following a firefight. He is now 21 and still being held in the Guantanamo prison camp.

Sometimes, they treated Khadr like a kid brother, teasing him about being from Scarborough, joking about his love of horseback riding, and offering him chocolate. Other times, they made fun of his claims of being tortured, called him a liar and questioned his manhood.

Footage of Omar Khadr weeping and calling out for Mommy has been circulating around, renewing charges that Guantanamo is a torture camp. Yet a soldier who encountered Omar Khadr in different circumstances says that he deserves what he has been getting. “Khadr ‘earned’ Guantanamo stay, says soldier,” by Stewart Bell for the National Post via JW
