Guantanamo Video Released

[cacophony]

it's probably old news that they held a 16 year old but for some reason i find it so so so so much more disturbing that we're allowing this to happen to minors.

I'm hoping that if Obama wins, this will be high on his list of priorities. I understand the need for a detention center, but the way Guantanamo has been administered has been horrific. How in the world can we ever claim any "moral standing" when things like this are going on?

A quick search turned this up...

“We need to bring to a close this sad chapter in American history, and begin a chapter that passes the might of our military to the freedom of our diplomacy and the power of our alliances. And while we are at it, we can close down Guantanamo and we can restore habeas corpus and we can lead with our ideas and our values.”
