GUANTANAMO UNBOUND

GUANTANAMO UNBOUND
Savage reality and the sweet land of liberty are bound together at Guantanamo in the way we treat prisoners there.  Can liberty live on in a savage age or must we give up what is most ours?  We are told the measures at Guantanamo are necessary, but we are not told the cost.  If we give up what is most ours, have not our enemies won?

"Here's the question you should ask yourself, 'If we do this thing, whatever it is, will it change the fundamental character of my country?' If the answer is yes, you've already given the terrorists a profound victory, so at all costs we should try to say 'No. We will not do anything that changes the fundamental character of our country."  Bill Clinton  [FINANCIAL TIMES]

Our society is bounded by liberty loved and cherished.  Our greatest threat to our liberty will never come from dark threats abroad who would take what we have, but from here at home if we give up the light we so brightly hold up to the world.
