    There.
    No offence Capo, but do you really think that little outburst is going to change anyone's minds? You'd do better to state your opinion clearly and not angrily Anger isn't good, it gives you high blood pressure

    My goal isn't to change peoples minds, but to annoy them to the point that they give up. If I wanted to change they're mind that post would be maybe 5 paragraphs long.

    Hmm...well that certainly was annoying, I'll give you that. But I'm going to have to go with the conditions at Gitmo are just slightly worse than what they could be...I'm not gonna give up, but your statement did annoy me good job

    No no.
    I'm impressed by Kaiser's moral clarity. The abiltiy to decide what all these prisoners deserve without having met them, tried them or put them through tribunals is a great ability. I think we should utilise it more. Kaiser for Attorney General, perhaps?

    Pashtun poets, for example, are a great threat to the American way of life.

    But yes, the other guantanamo is regularly condemned by Amnesty International among others. However, Cuba isn't the land of the free. It's the land of the dictator.

    I would harbour suspicion that the outrage towards guantanamo that many American's feel is due to their own government acting in a way that many believe is contrary to international law... This government that many will have voted for.

    You work to change those things you see most clearly, perhaps.

    Basic Achilles Heel of Communism, it has to strive to survive - that is generally by means of despotism and dictatorship.

    People should try to understand that Communism is nothing but a dream..

    Just Like what Putin once said :

    "Accept it, Communism was a good song at least.."

    Yes it sounds good but you need constant oppression to make it survive..

    Old mighty USSR, Cuba, China, Northern Korea ? Why do these countries have such similar characteristics ?

    Hell yeah, Communism sounded good - no more than that.. Capitalism, unfortunately, knocks out another opponent. I'm excited to see what will the next alternative be (or ever will any be ?)

    Let's start printing the t-shirts now: "We're better than Cuba. Yay."
