Obama's Government Report: Guantanamo is Humane and Abides by Geneva Conventions

President Obama in one of his first actions in office ordered the closure of the terrorist prison at Guantanamo Bay. He also ordered an in-depth study of the prison camps to decipher whether the terrorists and alleged terrorists at Gitmo are properly treated and that U.S. troops are abiding by the Geneva Conventions.

The report, part of which was leaked today, shows that Gitmo “complies with the humanitarian requirements of the Geneva conventions” and that the prisoners are treated with dignity. A Pentagon official, who spoke anonymously, said that it showed that the Bush administration created a humane detention camp that has been unfairly characterized by critics. Speaking of the remaining 245 detainees there, this official said the report underscored that if the men are moved, they may “go from a humane environment to a less humane environment,” according to the New York Times.

Well, well, well. As we at Move America Forward have been saying, President Obama has stepped in it. He has no plans for these dangerous beasts and, un til he ordered his Attorney General to visit gitmo, he had made no efforts to know the truth about what happens at the state-of-the art prison.

MAF visited Guantanamo Bay over the Christmas holidays and saw firsthand the living conditions of these prisoners, who have committed acts of terrorism or battled against America and her allies in the war on terror.

I saw the exercise yards with elliptical equipment; learned about the six meal plans from which these detainees choose their weekly meals; saw the interrogation rooms for the hardest terrorists that have cushy, overstuffed couches; viewed the high-quality flatscreen televisions the terrorists watch on their nightly movie nights; and observed the play yards where groups of detainees played soccer together. Throughout the prisons, arrows are painted on the floor so when the prisoners are called to prayer five times a day (all prisoners are Muslim), they know where Mecca is.

The prison is climate-controlled and each prisoner has a doctor and an orderly and nurse, better health care than our troops and the American taxpayers who foot the bill for these terrorists.

So it is no surprise to me that the Obama’s report shows that the terrorists and suspected enemy combatants are living in appropriate quarters and in good conditions. The attacks on the Bush Adminstration were hogwash from ignorant people.
The report did find that prsoners should spend more time out of their cells, but I saw a lot of freedom at Gitmo.

As I said above, the detainees spend plenty of time outside of their cells. The most compliant get to be out of their cells for hours upon hours, playing foosball, soccer and exercising. They also take art and English classes.

The Obama adminstration better believe they are going to feel pressure and heat from those of us who know the truth about Gitmo. MAF has produced a commercial which you can see here.

There is no logic behind closing gitmo. It is safe and humane, as Obama’s report shows.
