description: There are about 6 prisoners of America’s war on terrorism being held at the U.S. military detention center at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Gitmo, as it is referred to, is at the core of an international debate over America’s decision to detain enemy combatants there and to refuse prisoner-of-war status to detainees. This compelling book traces the history of the naval station, defines the legal status of prisoners of war and enemy combatants, describes life on the base, and explains the military tribunal process. It also predicts the impact of the U.S. Supreme Court ruling in June 24 that allows these detainees to legally challenge their detentions.
