The thing is Ustwo, is that the whole Gulag stamp has been placed on the camp because these people have been held, without charge, for over 4 years now. No court. No judicial process. The US has taken these people's liberties. *That's* why it's being called a gulag. And that should be enough. That in itself is illegal. That alone should be enough for the camp to be closed down.
But no, you have to see bloody torture and crippling persecution before you will accept that these people are being held illegally. Is that what you're trying to tell us?
I'm glad that they have been treated with some level of respect and dignity - but I am absolutely sickened that we have been able to remove these people's freedoms without any form of due process. How does that look to the rest of the world? Does it make America look like the land of the free?
A gulag is still a gulag, no matter how nice you are to its inmates. And I thank you for pointing that out so effectively.
