Pentagon
decides to relocate
Al Qaeda Prisoners to Viequez

World - San
Juan, Puerto Rico-
Secretary
of Defense, Donald Rumsfeld, announced today that the
Pentagon will be scrapping its policy of detaining Al Qaeda
and Taliban prisoners at Camp X-Ray, in Guantanamo Bay,
Cuba, and will be relocating these 'Unlawful Combatants'
to a makeshift prison facility on Viequez.
In
recent years, Viequez has been the source of much political
protest and controversy, due to the location of several US
Naval bombing target ranges on the tiny island off Puerto
Rico.
Camp
X-Ray, on Guantanamo Bay, was closed down this week,
mainly due to pressure imposed upon the Pentagon by Human Rights
advocates.
Amnesty
International Guest Spokesman, Fidel Castro, claimed
that the penning-up of the terrorist detainees, on a sunny 85-degree
Caribbean beach with no umbrellas in their drinks, was "inhumane".
(As opposed to leaving them to wallow in their own filth
in their sub-freezing, snowbound Afghan caves).
In
stark contrast to Camp X-Ray, the Viequez "lock-up" has
been nicknamed 'Camp Sigmoidoscope', and it does
not impose the stringent confinement and rigorous security precautions
of the Guantanamo Bay facility. The detainees will now be allowed
to more or less roam free, within certain confined sections
of Viequez Island, which are controlled by the US military.
And,
despite this relocation of the detainees, US Naval and
Marine Corps training maneuvers on Viequez will continue
as scheduled, and may even be stepped up a notch.
Secretary
Rumsfeld explained,
"We want to make our guests feel right at home here…as though
they were back in Afghanistan.
"And
at the same time, our new recruits will now be able to get in
some real live target practice, within a controlled environment.
The whole Viequez set up is a real win-win situation
for both sides."
However,
this relocation of the detainees has stemmed new and further
controversy on Viequez.
FOX
News"War Correspondent" and part-time Puerto
Rican, Gerry Rivers, has chained himself to a palm tree
on the site of the Naval target range in protest.
Correspondent
Rivers added during his latest 'Exclusive Live'
televised report: "If
there's one thing I learned from my 'good-guy' Afghan comrades
during my coverage in Tora Bora is, you got to keep your pendejo
down when there's incoming fire.".
Further
protests are being lodged by environmental activist, whack-job,
Bobby Kennedy, Jr., who stated,
"Have you ever smelled these Taliban guys? "Introducing
this new species of vermin could tip the delicate balance
of the Viequez eco-system."
And
the Rev. Al Sharpton has announced he will go on another
'hunger strike', in protest of the Viequez situation,
by boycotting all the fast food restaurants located at the New
Jersey Turnpike rest stops.
The
Pentagon finally decided on the Viequez site, when local
security fears quashed the tentative plans of housing the detainees
on an old Naval Base outside of Charleston.
S.C. Governor, Jim Hodges explained:
"While
we'all here in the Palmetto State are proud Americans
who support President Bush and his administration, we don't
exactly sign on to that part about "compassionate" conservatism.
"Considering our citizen's hard-lined views towards ethnic
minorities, coupled with our liberally broad interpretation
of the Second Amendment, we simply couldn't guaranty
the personal safety of the prisoners, or the protection of their
civil rights here in South Carolina.
"Bringing
a bunch of diaper-headed terrorists into a state where
we still fly the 'Stars and Bars' and burn crosses,
just didn't seem to be the prudent thing to do."
