Obama must shut down Guantanamo bay, the treatment and torture of the P.O.W's held in the prison. True, they have to interrogate the detainees in order to get valuable information that could save lives, but the amount of physical and mental abuse is so tough and intimidating that even innocent people would go insane. Prisoners are tortured constantly under the most extreme conditions, dangerous men or not, Guantanamo has broken several UN humane laws. We always think of other countries is where all that barbaric shit happens but actually we have no room to talk. Prison guards attack on a dailey basis doing harsh things such as, constantly disturbing them while their trying to sleep to make them switch beds, escorted violently every where you, abusive interrogators and just straight up torture.
Force feeding:
A group of volunteers under went a test that simulated the conditions inside Guantanamo Bay. The test didn't do a lot of the torture techniques used in Guantanamo for the safety of the volunteers. The video is featured below but be warned, its pretty brutal none the less.
"You are in a place where there is no law - we are the law." - U.S. military intelligence officers
True, Guantanamo holds some of the most dangerous people on the planet but even so, no human should be treated this way. It's just simply inhuman and makes us hypocrites as Americans, when we talk about the abuse other countries do to there POW when we pretty much do the same thing.
