Tim Dickinson at Rolling Stone‘s National Affairs Daily, examining the question of what to do with Guantanamo detainees when Guantanamo closes, poses an interesting suggestion:
An immodest proposal: Let’s house them on Alcatraz.
Make it modern and secure. But also keep it open as a tourist attraction.
These guys are not super heroes. They’re not Houdini’s. They’re easily contained. And we should make a show of how toothless they really are.
Plus, it’d make one hell of a tourist draw.
Link. Yeah, I’ve lived in Northern California pretty much all my life and I’ve never been to Alcatraz. This would make me visit Alcatraz.
