5,000? Why?
This sounds nuts.
My earlier proposal of pushing Muslim terrorists out of helicopters over the Atlantic remains the cheapest option.
I hope that's a misprint.
Hopefully looking ahead to thousands of new prisoners after future the “deepstate” coup investigations...
Crazy.
Heck, build a private resort hotel with a military discount- and make a profit!
$250 million for a five-bed hospital? Uhmmmm Red Lined.
But the Army can build for only $124 million a new barracks for 848 prison troops? That $250 million hospital is looking stupider
The Pentagon proposes to build 52 family homes at a cost of $1.3 million each on the atoll in the Marshall Islands.
Freakin Mansions can be built for that….
Hillary is going to need that hospital.
Only the best for the Clinton crew.
I can build a prison there for a heck of a lot less than 500 million.
High price tag. How much do waterboards cost?
I hope there is a big "Hell No" to that assinine request.
Guantanamo is NOT remote— it is isolated because of the Cuban regime, the double fence and Cuban laid mine field that surrounds it, that’s true. A very short flight from Miami, and/or Key West. The housing is 1950’s cement block, there’s a Mcdonalds and KFC and a whole lot else. It ain’t Kwajalein, nor is it Diego Garcia.
Friend was military hospital commander at Gitmo, a US Navy Captain back in the 60’s. They started a bank on base for the Cuban nationals day laborers and every night, when they went back into Cuba they were searched and had what ever money they had on them stolen. Hence the bank and the referral for emigration. Was a while ago. And the labor was cheaper, and really pissed off Castro. Cuban govt. still takes 50% of any fisherman’s catch.
I’d say OK if they will put nobama, hilLIARy, bill, lynch, abedin and other criminal political losers in there for the rest of their collectively worthless lives.
We should only need to spend about a quarter of what we do on defense—and what we buy ought to work better for that too.
Congress is poised to give the Army $124 million to build a new barracks for 848 prison troops to be ready four years from now. To be named the Benedict Arnold Wing, and house traitors to the republic.
And on a different corner of the base, the Pentagon is soliciting bids of up to $100 million to build a skeletal structure for a 13,000-migrant tent city Welcome MS 13 and all human trafficking friends to your new home.
and housing for 5,000 U.S. forces. Because this place is going to be a great tool to increase troop accuracy on live targets of opportunity.
