Replace "Gitmo" with the name of any other prison in any other country at any other time in history, and the statement still stands.
There are far greater forms of evil than Gitmo, and there are far greater forms of good than Gitmo.
Look to your own neighborhoods before casting aspersions at distant ones.

It's not the conditions of Gitmo that are the problem - it's not even the fact that innocent people have been rounded up. It's the fact that it's a symbol of the abdication of 800 years of judicial tradition. If you imprison someone with no trial proving their guilt, then that. is. wrong.
