It was probably mistranslated, those kind of things happen, you know. The correct translation would have been "I am shocked at the gracious accommodations at your detainee facilities at Gitmo. Come to Russia, we will teach you how to REALLY treat prisoners!"

Yes, it must have been mistranslated. Did you notice it said Club Gitmo is in the southwestern part of Cuba? It's really in the southeast.
And I have trouble feeling sorry for the prisoners, since I read the menu and learned that on most days, they eat better than I do! Compared with Afghanistan, Cuba must seem like a tropical paradise, even when seen from behind bars. We haven't even converted any prisoners to Christianity, so I guess we're poor Crusaders, too.
