Paranoia over Gitmo

Defense Sec. Rumsfeld defended the decision to keep the Guanatnamo Naval prison over widespread dissension, manly spread by the anti-American media, over alledged torture going on. This statement says it all for me:

"The kind of people held at Guantanamo include terrorist trainers, bomb-makers, extremist recruiters and financiers, bodyguards of Osama bin Laden and would-be suicide bombers," Mr. Rumsfeld said yesterday. "They are not common car thieves."

President Bush also defended allegations from Amnesty International that the prison was a "gulag", calling it "ridiculous". This strange liberal paranoia over anything we do to win the War on Terror is shameful. While claiming to do good, they infact support the terrorists, and hurt America's image in the world. Thankfully, the elites of the world do not speak for the average America, who remember September 11, support our troops, and our President!

Update: Here is a very good article from Canada called Much ado about Guantanaomo.
