before who have said that even if guantanamo bay doesn't then surely close for good the idea of guantanamo bay or indefinite detention well not what do you think about that you know this country has changed permanently since nine eleven the idea that we can indefinitely detain people that we didn't prosecute anybody for torture they don't have to try people when you pick them up i'm afraid that is now in bedded in the american legal system and so what i fear is that you can close guantanamo physically but you will not end the illegal detentions that are currently going on in places like bag ram and may go on in other places as well so i think it's very bad going forward even if it's close physically but closing it physically would certainly be an important step particularly for the men at guantanamo michael ratner president emeritus at the center for constitutional rights thank you so much . well you've heard of people using picket signs and protest chance to get their message of dissent across in the past but how about stripping down to your skinny that's exactly what one mexican congress

doesn't actually close for good the idea of guantanamo bay or indefinite detention while not what you think about that this country has changed permanently since nine eleven the idea that we can and he made it and people that we didn't prosecute anybody for torture but they don't have to try people when you pick them up. i'm afraid that is now embedded in the american legal system. so what i fear if they can close guantanamo physically but you will not and the illegal detentions and are currently going on in places like bagram and they go on in other places as well so i think it's very bad going forward even if it's close physically but closing after that we would certainly be an important step for takeaway for the men at guantanamo michael ratner has an emeritus at the center for constitutional rights. thank you so much. moving forward with plans to buy out the robotics company boston dynamics is somewhat surprising move by the internet giant's four years boston dynamics has been leading the way in machine innovations in the interest of the defense advanced research projects agen

this last week free trial hearings continued at some of the case at guantanamo bay.will resume later this month. and the trial of the 9/11 alleged conspirators will begin sometime next year in the estimation of the chief prosecutor. but now the chief prosecutor was brought on by the obama administration is a regular general. he's by many account the most impressive figure to be associated with military commissions today. he was a scholar and harvard law school classmate of president obama. he was, at one time this is considered a prejudice use thing. he was a property jay of general petraeus. and he came in there with really the reputation of being perhaps the best or one of the best military lawyers there currently is. and his -- when he talked about military economieses, he's discussed how sure they had some problems in the past but what we're dealing today is something very different than the first rather primitive order that came out in november of twufn. he points out the supreme court looked at this project and there have been two acts of congress that have aut

bases at guantanamo bay and he brought specific attention to waterboarding saying that this practice happens at guantanamo bay and he was he called it torture he used those words now here is part of my conversation with him right before he went to prison. the bush administration more specifically president bush at the time was lying to the american people by saying that we were not waterboarding prisoners we were not torturing anyone and if anyone was being tortured it was a result of rogue officers inside the cia on a saucer i want to bring you in as a result of what whistleblowers have done particularly chelsea manning in recent years wiki leaks has been able to bring to light some of the nation's darkest secrets about the iraq war in afghanistan war in particular the detention facility in guantanamo bay especially with the summer's hunger strike you were gone tony mowbray on a star you gave us several reports from there what's going on down there this year . well last and what's going on down there this year is pretty much what has been going on for since day one of obama's presid

six years speaking of america's most notorious prison and detention facility at guantanamo bay. i think taking a recent steps toward closing its doors a bit very very small steps. first the main reason we see obama administration has quietly released its detainees the first transfers out of the prison year. second when congress passed the national defense dollars asian act this month for the first time restrictions on guantanamo transfers were actually used instead of titans. along with the transfer ban on detainees you've never been charged with a crime and have been cleared to be released. so the summer of hunger striking maybe irresponsible for a winter of releases at the prison. we now go to art he corresponded honest us to church. it takes a closer look at something you might not know about gitmo the sleek misconceptions get goal is not just in jail so he ought not to shout. it's also a forty five square mile military base with no plans of going anywhere. full of signs of established american life is a navy base and we just happen to have that they can send him home so the
