Apparently, despair is now an act of war

[Banquo's Ghost]

Three inmates of Guantanamo have committed suicide. But the eejit in charge considers this an 'act of war'.

"I believe this was not an act of desperation, but an act of warfare waged against us." Rear Adm Harry Harris, Camp commander.

So they somehow scored a victory? What planet does this man come from? Is he so infected by propaganda that he cannot see a human tragedy?

None of these men have been charged with a crime, given legal representation, or know when and if they will be released - or even brought to a fair trial. Which one of you can say they would stand up to such a plight without despair? But if they escape the only way they have, they are suddenly terrorists carrying out acts of war?

Guantanamo is a stain on the soul of America. The fact that the American people passively allow it to exist is yet another tragedy.
