Guantanamo Torturees Described In New York Times As Facing A "Dilemma". We'll Say!

     Saturday, 4 May 2013, MIAMI, FL - Surprise, surprise. An Op-Ed piece "The Detainees Dilemma" by Joe Nocera in The New York Times first published late this past Monday in telling the rather shockingly tragically sad horror story of more than ten years of one already ruled innocent young man's life stolen from him and destroyed in the name of we the American people details how the Guantanamo torturees (let's call a spade a spade) actually were provoked into their current hunger strike now said to include more than one hundred of those remaining on the wrong side of the bars in "Gitmo" (to invoke that feel-good American spirit of, say, "one more for the Gipper!").
     Seems as mentioned in the Ninth Amendment's below comment reproduced verbatim from the New York Times digital edition a couple days back that the torturees had had the audacity even after being told not to do so to cover up and even break the cameras (belonging to the American taxpayers!) watching the torturees do nothing all day when not being tortured. What could the US armed forces do but raid the torture prison, shoot the torturees with rubber bullets and throw them back into solitary confinement where they already have spent years and now to this day are back again and refusing food  and liquid with liquid in tubes therefore being forced up through their noses. In the comment below the Ninth Amendment expresses its belief that Mr. Nocera's description of the torturees current condition as being one of a "dilemma" is perhaps even an understatement not fully capturing the significance of the situation.
  

NINTH AMENDMENT COMMENT PUBLISHED IN THE DIGITAL TIMES:

"The Detainees Dilemma"? Well, yes, "dilemma", we'll say! The editorial board of the Ninth Amendment Log at www.waronnothing.blogspot.com certainly cannot fault the Times on going too far out on a limb allowing the choice of THAT word in this headline. Especially considering that in the past weeks the entire editorial board of The New York Times had the moral courage to call for the CLOSURE OF GUANTANAMO BAY AND RELEASE OF DETAINEES lest they forgot, are all still asleep or thought they would just tone down the rhetoric a bit and allow a piece published that could do no better than call this continuing atrocity something so deeply insightful as a  "dilemma". As in would you rather have Asian or pizza tonight? Of more like would you rather starve yourself to death now that you have been thrown back in solitary for some entirely unknown period for daring break our cameras so the latest sickos the CIA and armed forces send out there cannot watch you do nothing all day except wonder when the next Mengelian experiment is unleashed upon you, or would you just care to stick it out?. Dilemma, right. President Obama at Guantanamo Bay and more recently allowing the establishment of thirty-five plus drone bases in Africa land of HIS ancestors where Obama himself makes the final murder calls to his "lethal surveillance teams" is a disgrace to all who believed in him. Bush was a bona fide idiot tool a quarter-notch above Texas' Idiot Gov. Rick Perry. Obama knows, excuse us, knew better.
