DEAR READER, IGNORE ALL THAT FOLLOWS::

Guantanamo, The United States' Auschwitz (Timothy Bancroft-Hinchey, 01/25/2005, Pravda)

Nobody should grandstage or try to score cheap points from Auschwitz.

Not often the first line of a column refutes the columnist's own thesis.

Pravda!?! The effete British left must still be worshiping Stalin.

"nobody..." but us! Pravda (TORO POOPOO!) hates America and opposes anything American.

The irony of an Englishman, (whose country introduced the concentration camp in South
Africa, wrting for a Russian paper, where
they perfected the concentration camp;(re
Solzhenitzyn's Gulag Archipelago) writing
about a detention center in Cuba (the other
early pioneer in this concept) directed by
soldier's like Fidel's father; the Latin
Mohammed to Fidel's Osama. is quite laughable

I thought the Japanese internment camps were our Auschwitz. It's so hard to keep up these days.

David:

Don't forget our prisons with all our death row inmates (the majority of which are minorities). They are our death camps!
