Gitmo
And while I'm in a phenomenally bad mood, I gotta ask the question:
Why does the United States still have the Guantanamo Bay detension center open?
Why haven't we tortured every last drop of blood and intelligence out of the detainees, so we can then just line them up and machinegun them down once their purpose has been served?
The United States obviously doesn't have any problem implementing torture (Abu Ghraib) or mass executions (Haditha), so what's the point of keeping Gitmo around when we could just as efficiently gouge every shred of evidence out of the detainees and then do the humane thing and just shoot them?
(Despite my usual bloodthirstiness, this is a legitimate question that's been wandering around in my mind for a while now....)
