Al Jazeera and Fox News (Tor-friendly archived copy) report that fifteen captives have been released from the Guantánamo Bay Detention Camp in Cuba. The prisoners, who were captured in Afghanistan and Yemen, are being transferred to the United Arab Emirates for settlement.

There remain 61 prisoners at the camp, of whom at least 19 have been cleared for release.

    Gah! It's like talking to a battered wife: 'why do you stick by that drunken abuser?' 'cause he LOVES me!' ; stupid git(s)
