I sort of prefer that emotional version to the other scenario: it was cynically planned a long time ago by a small group of people. The gov are mere puppets to that sinister bunch. Their agenda don't include human lives, truth or liberty. It includes more power, more money and more control. Nothing else.
The Gitmo is a test bed to train and accustom the guardians to tortures, first of foreigners, then later on of US citizens. At first the bad treatments of prisoners has been mild, then it has gotten worse and worse. Desensitize, desensitize...
Then make prisons all over the US based on the same model. Throw out the Constitution, declare martial law. Throw in jail anyone who disagrees. Give them "the work". Make then good, obedient citizens. Implant them with control chips. Then sit back and profit. ~A Perfect World ~.
The End. <pre-recorded applause>
