Bush Does Poland

Jeanne D'Arc has the lowdown on Bush's visit to Krakow. I hope that link works. I just finished reading a Yahoo/AP account of it and was disgusted by his invoking Holocaust images and relating them to this 'war on terror'. The depth of his hypocrisy knows no bounds. According to this article death camps are being considered in Guantanamo. Two years ago who would have imagined we'd be where we are today. Oh of course. We are justified because of 9/11.

THE US has floated plans to turn Guantanamo Bay into a death camp, with its own death row and execution chamber.

Prisoners would be tried, convicted and executed without leaving its boundaries, without a jury and without right of appeal, The Mail on Sunday newspaper reported yesterday.

The plans were revealed by Major-General Geoffrey Miller, who is in charge of 680 suspects from 43 countries, including two Australians.

The suspects have been held at Camp Delta on Cuba without charge for 18 months.

General Miller said building a death row was one plan. Another was to have a permanent jail, with possibly an execution chamber.
