yes Yes, it is a very good place for transitioning people. Not to be holding them as prisoners, of course, but providing safety while their eventual expatriation can be best ascertained.

no Refugees were treated like prisoners. They should have been given political asylum and flown to the US.

no using the property of another country, against that countries will, to house what we consider the most evil people on the planet because we're too scared and weak to house them on our own soil? Thanks America, you guys sure are a good people. I bet you all believe in God. boy it really shows!

yes Although I would prefer not, since my family was evacuated during the Haitian refugee situation, I do see the need for a place off shore for holding and processing refugees so as not to overrun the country. And you people who were never there have NO idea how well the refugees had/have it!!!
