Guantanamo Bay
Guantanamo Bay, Cuba famous for...
1. Its shout-out on the Fugee's first single off The Score: "I, refugee from Guantanamo Bay, mess around the border like I'm Cassius Clay."
2. Its US Army Detention Center which currently holds hundreds of "Enemy Combatants" as part of the ongoing War on Terror.
3. Playing host to the only US Naval Base on Communist soil.
Everytime Guantanamo Bay is mentioned in the news I wonder how it is that we have a military base in Cuba. Fidel Castro may be beign, but we still do not have diplomatic relations with Cuba. You cannot get a direct flight from the US to Cuba. The de facto currency in Cuba was the US dollar, up until late last year when Castro outlawed it.
I Asked Jeeves, I Googled, I went on the US Navy's Guantanamo Homepage and still can't find a satisfactory answer. Maybe Castro doesn't get the NY Times, and is unaware that his Guantanamo Bay is at the center of a debate over the manner in which America interrogates suspected terrorists.
