And you thought it couldn't get worse!
Someone once said, "To understand a culture, you must look to their prisons."
Three inmates recently committed suicide at our beloved Gitmo. The government has stated through several spokes people that these were "a good PR move" as well as characterizing these suicides as acts of aggression. Our government wants you to see this as an act of aggression? Are you serious? They are in a prison? This is an act of desperation and last resort. It was a stand against tyranny and injustice. Gitmo is at the heart of America's malfunctioning nationalism, and we must wake up to this fact.
Are you going to listen to there spin, or are you going to call it like you see it?
Your gut tells you that holding anyone indefinitely (going on 5 years) could potentially lead to suicide. Imagine it. Your gut tells you that this prision is wrong, regardless of the beliefs or desires of these folks. I have some pretty wicked desires brewing inside me, but you would never imprison me for them. Your heart tells you we should have never opened this prison.
We must make this administration pay for these and other war crimes they have perpetrated in Iraq and in Gitmo. We must use the example of Nurembrug and bring these leaders of a war of aggression to justice. We must stop them acting in our name in these inhuman ways. We must start take back the country by paralyzing this administration by winning control of congress. We must continue to support third and fourth parties to eliminate the two party domination of our government.
If we don't start to take action, our country will continue to be manipulated, used, and abused by the neo-con sect in control indefinitely to the point where there will be nothing left to be done.
I am not coming back any time soon simply because I am afraid of my government. Aren't you?
