After spending a year as a Detainee Sergeant of the Guard (supervisor)at GITMO, I can tell you that NO MARINES worked the cell blocks. So, what you have, even if you’re foolish enough to believe this picture is actually at GITMO-as “Thomas” correctly pointed out in a 2010 post, you’d be believing a lie. There were NO BEATINGS, no flushing of Qurans down the toilets-at least NOT by any Americans, though there were several cases of detainees doing it themselves just so they could demand a cell change to be closer to their “buddies.” All of the negative press about GITMO comes from people who either were never there, or who spent anywhere from one day to one week there at the base, and precious little time talking to people who actually did the hard work involved. Another case of “a little bit of knowledge is dangerous…”

The picture of the man that looks as though he is about to punch a bound person on the ground is not from GITMO. This is one of the pictures released during the Abu Grab incident. Doesn’t excuse the behavior however misreplesentation of the photos origin says a lot about your credability which seems to be lacking. If you are trying to act as a credible journalistic enterprise you are held to the same standards!

All of this is left wing propaganda. It would make me laugh that any of you believe it if it were not so sad and disappointing.
I will not say that that are never any abuses because these guards are human.
Our military people are held to the highest standards of any in the world and 99.99 % are good.
You people need to read and something besides left wing blogs, NBC and YouTube.

I never gave my permission to print IN TORTURE WE TRUST across our flag. Unfortuantely my president and congress has.

I’m ashamed. How can we allow this to continue. Time for new leaders. VOTE!!

It is sad to see that this is the true face of america.
