Obama to close Guantanamo Bay

30 years or more we have been turning a blind eye to radical Islam thinking we can "negotiate", thinking we can "bring them into the civilized rule of law", thinking "it's probably our fault they hate us so" and blah, blah, blah. Where has it gotten us? I'll tell you where. Beruit in all of the 1980's, Lockerbie, Rijhad, WTC attack #1, USS Cole, Kenya embassy bombings, 9-11, UK tunnel bombings, Spain tunnel bombings, Mumbai...and the next is just around the corner. Iran will be permitted to obtain nuclear weapons and that will be the beginning of the end. Israel will have to strike because if they don't they will be a certain target as have they been since the day after they declared their independence in 1948. It really is sad to see the world lose the guts to say, evil is evil and must be destroyed because the risks we face from it totally eclipse any temporary discomfort we might face with putting our "ideals" aside while we deal with it.
