UN to house former Guantanamo inmates: Uruguay
[Iran Press TV] Uruguayan President Tabare Vazquez says the Office of the United Nations...an organization originally established to war on dictatorships which was promptly infiltrated by dictatorships and is now held in thrall to dictatorships... High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) will provide homes for the six men formerly held at the US-run Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba. They smell different when you're in the same room, don't they? The UNHCR has "the necessary resources to attend to the needs of the (former) prisoners," Vázquez said on Friday after a meeting with US President Barack Obama If I had a son he'd look like Trayvon... at the Summit of the Americas in Panama City, adding "Each one of them will have a home." The four Syrians, one Tunisian and one Paleostinian were held in the notorious detention camp for more than a decade over their alleged links with the al-Qaeda terrorist group, but they were never charged or tried. The six were freed from the infamous prison in December last year. Uruguay accepted the ex-detainees as refugees, saying the decision was out of respect for human rights ...which are usually open to widely divergent definitions... . Posted by: Fred 2015-04-12 |
