New Guantanamo Arrests âImminentâ
Nearly two dozen investigators are searching for possible security breaches at the U.S. prison for terror suspects, officials said Thursday at the camp where espionage charges have heightened tensions. Sources familiar with the investigation said two more arrests may be imminent."Iâll take a leap of faith, and predict the new arrestees will be of the Muslim faith. "The translators, from San Diego-based Titan Corp., arrived as officials boosted security by closely monitoring e-mail messages, asking troops to report suspicious behavior, and postponing the assignment of another Muslim chaplain." The new Muslim chaplain is already under suspicion, and he hasnât arrived yet, what are the odds. "Both military and civilian officials acknowledge part of the problem is finding qualified linguists for Guantanamo, where about 70 translators help 200 interrogators in 17 languages." No, the real problem is finding loyal linguists. "Levitt said if there were three security breaches at Guantanamo it represented "a colossal intelligence failure."" Wrong again. The security breaches represent a colossal policy failure. The translators and the chaplain were not singled out for extra scrutiny because the official position of the United States is that Islam is a âreligion of Peaceâ, and âreal Islam has nothing to do with terrorism."
