In the running for an oscar. Hello, u. S. President barack obama laid out his plan for shutting the Guantanamo Bay Detention Center seven years after he first pledged to close it. It was set up 14 years ago after the september 11 attacks. Many detainees were held for years without charge, 91 are still incarcerated. He said it undermines u. S. National security and values. With that, i will sign the next executive order. U. S. President barack obama is hoping in his last year, he can actually accomplish closing the controversial Detention Center at Guantanamo Bay, cuba. Ive been working for seven years now to get this closed. His plan is vague, telling congress there are sinner sights in the u. S. Where detainees could be held, closing a chapter in u. S. History that damaged its standing abroad. Began boy does not advance our national security. It undermines it. This is not just my opinion. This is the opinion of experts and many in our military. Its counterproductive to our fight again
