Nine men died in prison. Prison authorities ordered them murdered. False reports claimed suicide.
Bush and Obama officials remain unaccountable.
CCR demands Obama keep his promise. Guantanamo "unacceptably enter(s) its twelfth year of operation."
Obama continues the worst of Bush administration policies. Indefinite detentions without charge or trial continue. Illegitimate military commissions are used. They assure guilt by accusation. Hanging judges preside.
It's long "past time to shut down Guantanamo. (It's) urgent. (It's) ethically and legally necessary."
America's "war on terror" reflects consummate evil. It's Washington's way to wage war on humanity. It does so lawlessly. It continues without end.
Everyone's unsafe. Rogue US officials trample on fundamental human rights. Obama and those around him enforce police state harshness. They shame the positions they hold. They practice what demands condemnation. It's official policy. It persists.
Over 100 Guantanamo detainees resist their only way. They're hunger striking for justice. They're in their fifth week. A few elderly and ill still ingest food.
