In a scathing column in The Nation, Robert Scheer exposes how "Might makes right," at "Gitmo," the colonial-style US prison camp run by American soldiers and paid for with American dollars."
"This Kafkaesque gulag, like others in human history, is an expression of a governing doctrine that defines morality as simply an expression of power: Might makes right. What the system can get away with, it does, unless reined in by the people it claims to represent. The ideology invoked in defense of the indefensible does not matter, for it has by that time been reduced to noble-sounding yet ultimately empty slogans, which clumsily paper over a steady erosion of the sanctity of individual rights."
