yes Only in the sense that the U.S. owes it to Cuba, Haiti, and the rest of the world to responsibly and quickly close down both the prison and the naval station there. The U.S. has committed unforgivable human rights violations on the site of Guantanamo and needs to make reparations before pulling out.
