Guantanamo Bay, important or unimportant? The bay in itself is located in the harsh tropical weather of the Cuban area. The bay is important in some ways but does its cons overpowers the pros. It is beneficial to the U.S because it keeps a hold of future or dangerous terrorists. It has the prisoners confess to their wrong doings but under the circumstances of torture, it is proven everyone will crack at some point so whether the information is true or false it is the answer the Government is looking for. Although they have gotten many true confessions these confessions are useless in court and other political situations because of the torture being used to get the confessions makes the information useless. If torture is used the confessions are not valid because anyone will crack under a certain amount of torture therefore if a prisoner wants the torturing to come to a cease he will admit to anything. One prisoner once pled guilty to crimes that had never even happened just to get the torturing to stop. The government may get the information they want and need but it is of no use to them because of invalid confessions prove nothing other than torture can get any information out of anyone. Another pro could be that it gives warning to the other terrorists who are thinking about committing a terror attack on the U.S to think twice of his actions, but on the contrary it could also increase the hatred of the middle eastern enemies giving them more reason to attack. Hypothetically speaking if we keep on importing and storing alleged terrorists at Guantanamo it could also have the prisoners scheme of other attacks and ways to strike back on America, hundreds of terrorists being captivated in the same place could lead to disaster. If we close the bay and let them rome free and talk to other terrorists and come up with ways to plan an attack on the U.S. What will happen if hundreds of terrorists are freed and have the ability to go and communicate with other people about how terrible their experiences were at Guantanamo, it could make the U.S look bad and also may start to fuel the fire with the terrorist groups of the world. If the U.S would have used the bay as more of an institution of just clearly storing and keeping an eye on suspected terrorists it might have a more positive aspect than the torture chamber that it is looked at by many today. It seems to be unimportant and virtually useless because of how many problems it has with itself and how little benefits come from it. Almost all of the information the is produced and confessed by the criminals is false and has no use in today’s judicial system therefore having very little affect on the prosecution and imprisonment of these convicted terrorists. Guantanamo needs some major improvements for it to serve an important rule in the world today, let alone it needs some useful information that is of some use to America and the World.
