Gitmo awaits more?
2017-01-19
[DAWN] DONALD Trump says he wants to be unpredictable. But with the inauguration nearly with us, there is one group that can be certain that having Mr Trump in the White House will make a big difference to their lives -- the remaining detainees at Guantanamo Bay.

A few weeks ago, Trump tweeted that there should be no further releases from Guantanamo. "These are extremely dangerous people and should not be allowed back onto the battlefield," he said. He has even vowed to "load up" the facility "with some bad dudes" once he is in the White House.

For his part, President B.O. has been trying to move some prisoners out before his term of office ends. Four Yemenis were released in the first week of January. There are now 55 inmates remaining.
