One blemish at a time

There appears to a move to clear the Guantanamo Bay detention facility of its most media-centric embarrassments. After the David Hicks plea bargain (with a sentence that will apparently take account of time already served due soon), comes news that the UK has apparently agreed to accept Bisher al-Rawi out of the camp; the Iraqi citizen was a British resident. One important thing about Bisher al-Rawi is that he is the refutation of the claim that Gitmo detainees are only those detained "on the battlefield." He was arrested on a business trip to The Gambia.
