Gitmo’s secret chamber
Fox News/Heritage
by James Jay Carafano
Since Sept. 11, the biggest disaster of the long war on terrorism has been the Bush administration’s response to concerns about its wartime detention policies. This is particularly true of the way it has handled charges regarding Guantanamo Bay, the detention center for ‘the worst of the worst’ captured in that war. Amazingly, the administration has managed to make its public-relations disaster even worse. The latest bombshell fell with a recent Associated Press report that Rear Adm. Mark Buzby, head of military detention operations at Guantanamo, confirmed the existence of a ‘Camp 7′ on base. The hitherto-unknown maximum security facility is home to about a dozen ‘high-value’ detainees. There is, of course, nothing wrong with maintaining separate facilities for different types of detainees. There could be several good operational reasons to do that.” (02/22/08)
