Catering to Gitmo Islamists


The pampering the terrorists receive include:

  • Halal food – a special diet that is prepared in accordance with the strictest of Muslim regulations
  • A recently-upgraded $750,000 soccer field
  • Al Jazeera TV
  • A library with 10,000 books and videos
  • A Muslim librarian who also stockpiles Arabic TV shows and important soccer matches for watching as desired
  • Personal copies of the Koran, complete with a Muslim librarian (NY Post says each Koran comes with a little hammock to keep it from touching the ground)
  • USA Today
  • Prayer beads and rugs
  • Free medical and dental care not offered to American prisoners, or average American citizens
NBC News reported a few of the items slated for a $150 million makeover:

  • - a new $12 million dining hall for the troops;
  • - a new $11.2 million hospital and medical units for the detainees;
  • - a $9.9 million “legal meeting complex” where lawyers can meet their detainee clients;
  • - a $10.8 million “communications network facility” to store data, including computer records and tapes of interrogations, which has been required by a federal court order.
