‘Waist’ of money at Guantanamo Bay as detainees get prison’s ‘infidel’ gym replaced

Americans are supposed to have sympathy for the accused terrorist detainees now on hunger strike to protest supposedly cruel conditions at the US military prison in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.

“I don’t want these individuals to die,” President Obama recently lamented, adding he intends to close Gitmo and transfer the detainees to US prisons.

But just a few years ago, detainees got so plump from overeating hummus and other dishes from the camp’s Islamically correct menu that commanders specially ordered treadmills to help them lose weight.

Then they ordered them again — because they weren’t made by Muslims.

“Even the hunger strikers were gaining weight because of all the food, so we go out and buy all this exercise equipment and throw it in the rec yard,” a Gitmo official said of a 2007 requisition. “Within the first week, there were guys saying, ‘Hey, this stuff is made in the US — made by infidels — and we’re not going to use it.’

“So what did we do?” added the official, who requested anonymity. “We took all of that s–t out, gave it to the soldiers to use, and bought them equipment that was made in a Muslim part of the world.”

Put them in with the general population of Riker’s Island. They might each last a week.

I suspect they'd end up running the place. We're killing them in large numbers because we have superior technology and training. These people manage to survive against our resources partly because they're sharp and partly because they're a team that has no qualms about either killing or dying. No way any ghetto thug or group of ghetto thugs can stand up to these people. It's like in British prisons, nobody messed with the IRA prisoners. Because they can kill you and everybody you know.

“Whatever we want to do with detainees should stay in Azzaghanistan or Iraq or wherever. Interrogate them and then either kill them or let them go”

Its a two part solution. Option A or option B. See how that does work?

Waist of money?

Why not? FReepers write often of "loosing money" all the time on FR.

We have our ways and in Rikers they would be seperated from each other, unless you believe they are Ninja Camel humpers who do interdimensional black magic without spilling their falafel.
