"A U.S. official, said Guantanamo is the "option of last resort." The official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the U.S. has identified about 50 people among the more than 900 held by Syrian forces as "high value" suspects that could be transported to Guantanamo if they are not repatriated."

If Guantanamo is the “last resort”, are the [+21][+2][+4] the number of people who will end up there?

Is Guantanamo really the meaning of “last resort” in Q’s post? Seems to me, just based on the wording, that he is saying that the DS’s panic will lead to the DS’s choosing to do something as a last resort.
