Here is a question of great importance to many as President Obama reaches his 100th day in office. His promise of closing the Guantanamo Bay prison has sparked support and likewise, criticisms domestically and internationally. Many countries have stated that the release of Guantanamo prisoners is an American Problem and they would not agree to taking in any of them. What is your take ad views on the closing of Guantanamo? Do you think it will make us safer or more dangerous from attacks by radicals?

I don't think Obama will let all the prisoner go free. Or that he is going to give them green card and let them roam free in US. Perhaps he has plans for them.

Yes I believe that must be the case too. Guess its really a great risk to national security if they were just released onto american soil, or any counry without conditions actually. Keeping Guantanamo operational violates humn rights and backs the words of radical leaders and make the message that "Westerners are devils" all the more credible, whereas releasing them itself constitutes a certain level of risks. Let's keep an eye on the developments and have faith in this young and inspirational President on how to keep things in control. Or rather, isn't that the only way?
