Miss Universe : Gantanamo is a "relaxing, calm, beautiful place"

[directfiesta]

.. just confirms that those intelligence evaluation are ... faked !!!

The 240 people who live in very basic lodgings on the southern tip of a sunny Caribbean island may wish to reconsider the less-than-rosy opinion they have of their surroundings.

No less an authority than Miss Universe has visited Guantánamo Bay and pronounced the infamous US detention centre a "relaxing, calm, beautiful place".

According to a blog posting that will strike fear into the hearts of diplomats in Caracas and Washington, the beauty queen - who is also known as Dayana Mendoza from Venezuela - visited the facility last week with her friend, Miss USA, Crystle Stewart.

"It was a loooot of fun!" Mendoza wrote on the Miss Universe blog. She also recounted how she and Stewart met US military personnel and toured the camp, with its barbed wire fences, minefields and watchtowers. As well as a bar on the base, the pair also discovered an "unbelievable" beach in the bay.

"We also met the military dogs, and they did a very nice demonstration of their skills. All the guys from the army were amazing with us."

But the "deployment" - organised to entertain US troops and "boost morale" - also had its educational aspects.

"We visited the detainees' camps and we saw the jails, where they shower, how the[y] recreate themselves with movies, classes of art, books. It was very interesting," wrote Mendoza. "I didn't want to leave, it was such a relaxing place, so calm and beautiful."

10 years ago, when I was in the marines I was stationed at gitmo for a year. as far as scenery is concerned, it is a nice place. The water was beautiful - clear as a bell. The nice beach she was talking about was probably one of the beaches reserved for officers - cant have us lowly enlisted personnel messing it up, though the ones we had access to were pretty nice as well.
I dont know how the facilities for the detainies of changed, if they have at all, but they werent horrible, decrepit places back then(gitmo was the center for migrant ops back then - when all the people from the caribian were trying to float up to florida to get in the US)
I get what she was saying, because I have been there myself, but I would venture to say that she isnt smart enough to get her point across so that people that have not been there know what she is talking about, so they end up thinking that it is propeganda. I would venture to say that, other than waterboarding, they probably get treated fairly well down there.
