Guantanamo now features movie night

February 8, 2008
FROM ASSOCIATED PRESS

GUANTANAMO BAY NAVAL BASE, Cuba — Seeking to ease conditions for angry and frustrated Guantanamo detainees, the commander of the prison camps has instituted language classes, a literacy program and wants to open communal areas for men held in isolation 22 hours a day. snip

Zachary Katznelson, an attorney representing detainees, said he welcomes planned changes.

‘‘Right now the men in Camp 6 sit in steel boxes without windows for at least 22 hours a day,’’ he said. ‘‘They have no mental stimulation, nothing to do.

‘‘But the real issue remains the fact that the men are being held without charge or trial,’’ Katznelson added. ‘‘English lessons do not equal a return to American values like due process. It’s just putting lipstick on a pig.’’

Recalling my point about liberals and waterboarding, let's try it with the issue of Gitmo:  if it were Ann Coulter, Sean Hannity, Michelle Malkin, Bush, Cheney, Rice, et al being held it would be crickets from the left about due process.

I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

I gotta ask - what kind of movies do terrorists enjoy watching? A Michael Moore film, perhaps? Is there an Islamofascist version of 24, where the hero goes around and beheads as many innocent civilians as he can in twenty-four hours? Or do they enjoy porn, like a nice little documentary flick about goat and camel breeding?

How Freudian is that?
