How We Lookin' At Gitmo? Not So Good, But Getting Better
Military officials this week began an internal review of security measures at the U.S. Naval Base Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, prison camp, saying immediate recommendations could be made to reinforce or correct procedures.
A spokesman for U.S. Southern Command, which oversees Guantanamo, said the review was prompted by the arrests of two translators and a Muslim chaplain on suspicions of espionage at the prison camp.

I'm amazed that these guys got access to Gitmo in the first place, but spies are kinda suave like that.
Mark's Remarks
Well, this whole situation was brought about by our being politically correct, and feeling the need to cater to these animals we captured. Also, the veting process for clearing people is pretty tedious and takes up to a year. Combine that with reservists running the Gitmo area, and you can see dedicated people who may not have the training. Also, there is too much bureaucracy and not enough human intelligence (THANKS MR. CLINTON) to track people. Combine that with the idea that some of the muslim chaplains we have were assoc. with extremist groups on the suspected list, and you have problems. However, it shows the excellence in the military that we got these guys, and I hope we throw the book at 'em. Way to go, GI Joes!!!!!
