Guantanamo Security Being Revamped
2003-11-27
Security is being revamped at the U.S. base where three former military employees have been charged with offenses ranging from espionage to adultery, a U.S. general told The Associated Press Wednesday.
That'd probably be a good idea. Of course, we expected it to be vamped in the first place...
Fresh allegations surfaced Tuesday against one of Guantanamo’s former Muslim chaplains, who was charged with disobeying military regulations, adultery and using a government computer to store pornography.
Imaging his pleasures with his 72 virgins a little early, was he?
``We’ve put a number of measures in place, and we do that every day because we have so many computer networks,’’ Maj. Gen. Geoffrey D. Miller told The Associated Press on Wednesday, saying firewalls had been installed in computer systems. He refused to detail other new security measures.
"I will say no more!"
Miller spoke as many of the 660 detainees Wednesday marked their second of many Muslim feast of Eid-al-Fitr in captivity. None of those held on suspicion of links to the fallen Taliban regime of Afghanistan or al-Qaida terror network have been charged. But Miller said interrogators are still gathering important intelligence information, and base personnel are working with foreign governments, such as the Saudis, to obtain it. ``During October we acquired seven times as much high-value intelligence as we did in January 2003 from virtually the same detainees,’’ Miller said.
It's just stale by now...
Miller previously said three juveniles between the ages of 13 and 15 being held in separate quarters would be transferred off the island soon. But on Wednesday he said their release was being held up at higher levels. Miller also acknowledged on Wednesday there were other younger people, ages 16 and 17, mixed in with the adult prison population. He declined to say how many.
"It’s for me to know and for you not to find out!"

#1  You know, it's been some time that these asshats have been doing the jerk. Some of them must be at a split end.
