no DO WE OWN GUANTANAMO BAY? SINCE WHEN DO PEOPLE WHO DON'T OWN SOMETHING HAVE A SAY IN ITS FUTURE? JUST THE ASKING OF THESE QUESTIONS REALLY SHINES A LIGHT ON HOW PSYCHO WE MUST SEEM TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD.

yes First, I agree this is poorly worded. The US utilizes the Bay as a bulwark for influence in the Caribbean, a terrorist detention center, a refugee holding place, and premier naval base. If Cuba can only think of it as a future museum, then it's probably for the best the US make use of the territory.
