>>we weaken our position by not following our own rules<<

Except that you can't quite seem to be able to put your finger on what those rules might be, but you just feel, somehow, that there must be a rule somewhere that is not being followed.

And when you can't think of it, you emote about these sweet innocent lambs should be sent back to their mommies to please the "Court of Public Opinion." Which seems to consist of a judge and jury all named Jacob Snyder.

Not mentioned recently in re Guantánamo, is that it is cubano territory being held by force of arms by US military .... the phoney 'lease agreement' used as pretext was signed by a puppet administration that was ruling under something called the 'Platt Amendment', entirely imposed by Washington on cubanos, who call the whole process plattismo .... the borders of an island should be fairly clear to all, they include everything above the low-tide mark .... there is no benefit derived in exchange whatsoever, cubanos don't even cash the piddly cheques that are presented as some kind of 'rent', usd2000/yr for that much area, including a harbour, what a sick joke that is
