Gitmo Prison Expansion Fuels Concentration Camp Fears
The Trump administration has transferred over 30 Venezuelan gang members to Guantánamo Bay, establishing a tent city with the capacity for thousands more migrants. Critics, including rights groups and journalists, condemn this action as a deliberate circumvention of legal oversight and a potential precursor to further human rights abuses. The use of Guantánamo to detain individuals deported from the U.S. mainland marks a significant departure from past practices, raising serious concerns about the legality and morality of these actions. The lack of transparency surrounding the detainees’ identities and legal status fuels these concerns, highlighting the potential for indefinite detention and the risk of unchecked abuses of power.
