On his second full-day in office, President Obama has ordered the closure of the Gitmo detention center.
On the surface this looks like America is "lightening up" and "going easier" on combatting terror. . How else should the world's terrorists think of America, knowing that one of our new President's top priorities is to close down a prison facility where some of our best interrogation work is done?
But beneath the surface, a serious political problem could be brewing for President Obama. What do we do with the approximately 245 terrorists that remain at Gitmo, chief among them, Khalid Sheikh Mohammed?
Talk is underway to place some of these thugs in the Fort Leavenworth "Disciplinary Barracks." Located in Kansas, Fort Leavenworth is the only maximum disciplinary facility in the entire Department of Defense.
But why should the smalltown community surrounding Fort Leavenworth be forced to deal with the threat of dangerous enemy combatants in its own community? Their town would immediately become a terrorist target in a far greater way than they are now.
We'll talk about this big news, tonight on The Austin Hill Show.
