The Washington Post story (linked below) declares that Guantanamo is “one of the toughest prisons on the planet.” Last May, in an attempt to put to rest some of this nonsense about Gitmo, Rear Admiral Mark Buzby, then commander of Joint Task for Guantanamo, explained the difference between “the Guantanamo that exists in … pop culture and the media and most people’s minds” and the “Guantanamo that exists here, the one that I see every day”.
