The military doesn't want it. It gives them and the United States a blackeye all over the world.

The world, especially Europe, has focused on it as a symbol of abuses of human rights by this country. The stories and the image are false but that doesn't really matter, the world is set to believe them. It is far easier and more effective to dismantle the camp than to deal with inflamed opinion around the globe.

I can think of at least one other instance where this country did something, at the moment seemingly justified, which has engrained itself into the public psyche to the point that it affects individual and public perceptions of the United States here in this country and also in every classroom in every country of the world.

Care to hazard a guess what it was? Hint: Name the 3 great sins of this country and you will find it.
