Obama Guantanamo Bay

Obama spent hid first hours boiling over  the fight against terrorism which the the Bush administration has left – on Thursday, declaring that “our ideals give us the strength and moral superiority” in the fight against al-Qaida. But Mr. Obama delayed for months – prior to his election, decisions on complex issues were put on hold, the United States has been operating the terorist haven since the terrorist attacks of 2001.

Mr. Obama signed orders closing the detention camp at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, within one year, ending the Central Intelligence Agency’s secret prisons, and that requires that all interrogation methods noncoercive Manual Field Army.

“We intend to win this fight,” he said. “We’re going to win on our own terms.”

Their actions on the second day of his presidency won praise from human rights groups and Democrats in Congress, who said the new policy would help restore the United States’ moral authority. Mr. Obama invited to the ceremony Signing of 16 retired generals and admirals who had spoken out against what they call torture. His passionate appeal for an end to harsh interrogation “made an extraordinary impression on me,” he said.

Mr. Obama hit the orders of a powerful new tone and represented an important first step toward rewriting the rules for America to deal with terrorist suspects. However, only its decision to suspend the military trials now under way at Guantanamo Bay seemed likely to have immediate practical significance, with other key political choices that must be resolved by working groups established within the administration.
