A change for real ?

One may wonder if the closing down of Guantanamo, if indeed it takes place, will,would change anything to US policy .The US undoubtedly hope that ,by so doing, they will somehow rehabilitate themselves, kick away Guantanamo, and eventually Abu Ghraib too , into oblivion, and regain their image, that of a democratic , free and just country.
However , there is no such thing as a free, democratic, and just US ; those notions of freedom, justice, and democracy are nothing but cheap propaganda upon which generations have been fed and which, out of laziness and/or silliness, they have preferred to accept as being true.There is but one moment in the history of the US which can be termed glorious, that's the War of Independence ( a misnomer by the way, for it's not as if the British had colonized a territory of the Yankees had been the natives).
On the very territory, the stolen territory of the US, there are countless Guantanamos, though they may be less spectacular and, perhaps, less violent , where thousands of people, regardless of their nationalities, whether they are US citizens or not, and most of them are US citizens, are ritually and systematically subjected to the worst, the most cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment imaginable.
Let us not blind ourselves to the harshness of an unpalatable reality:the closing down of Guantanamo, if it does stake place, will be but a cynical show.Thousands of Guantanamos will keep proliferating in the US, and elsewhere too with the blessings of the US.
But Guantanamo is no fatality;it has been created against the will of the people.So much in the US has been done done , carried out in the name of the people, but in fact against the will of the people.
It will first and foremost be the task of the people of the US to make sure that Guantanamo be relegated to where it belongs, to the museum of horrors and errors of Mankind.
