![]() Five Years of My Life: An Innocent Man in Guantanamo $24.95 The book I ordered came in quickly and when I received it it was brand spankin new, thanks! A+++ ![]() Inside Gitmo: The True Story Behind the Myths of Guantanamo Bay $24.99 The world needs more books like this. Whatever you think about the topic of Guantanamo, Lt. Col. Cucullu has taken the time to gather the facts about what is really going on "inside the wire." This type of accountable reporting is something painfully lacking in the popular media. What is shown on the evening news generates inaccurate, unfair accusations and downright falsehoods about a topic that Americans must be properly informed about. This book doesn't tell the so-called "other side," it lets you know what's really going on. A former opponent of the Guantanamo detention center myself, I never thought I would enjoy and appreciate a book like this. It's definitely opened my eyes. This type of responsible fact finding and reporting is simply refreshing. ![]() Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay $18.98 soundtrack is good. i recently saw the movie over the weekend. on the dvd they have a special feature called "dude change the movie". the first choice you can access "Harold and Kumar Go To Amsterdam". there is a slow rock song throughout, but takes off when Kumar meets Ellie on the bridge. also another song during Maria's shroom trip. does anyone know who plays these? ![]() The Least Worst Place: Guantanamo's First 100 Days $27.95 In an attempt to look beyond the camera flashes, sound bits, and video clips, Karen Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place covers the oft forgotten humanity of Guantanamo Bay. The senualization of the words: "torture", "terrorists" and "enemy combatants" gives way to a compelling tale of how our service men and women found themselves torn between righteous codes of conduct and initiatives from higher ups. Similar to David Halberstam's "The Children", Karen Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place" focuses on the characters and their personal journeys to tell the story beyond newspaper headlines and evening broadcasts. An edgy and sharp piece of writing, Greenberg's "The Least Worst Place" brilliantly explores the "how" and "why" of Guantanamo, leaving the "when", "what", and "where" to less experienced media stations. |
