`Nous sommes coincés' avec Guantanamo, les portes indique

Lundi 26 mai 2008

gitmo2.jpgSecrétaire Robert M. de la défense. Portes, qui a indiqué l'année dernière il rechercherait des manières de clôturer Compartiment de Guantanamo la prison militaire, a dit le sous-comité de la défense de crédits de sénat que son effort de médiation a été apporté à un « arrêt » par ce qu'il a appelé « un problème sérieux de non-dans-mon-en arrière-yard. »

Les portes dites là sont « environ 70 détenus de ″ que les Etats-Unis sont préparés envoyer de nouveau aux pays d'origine. Mais ces gouvernements « ou ne les accepteront pas ou nous sommes concernés que le gouvernement national les laissera nous desserrer une fois les retournent. »

Rendre cette perspective plus vraie était LES États-Unis militaire' annonce de s qu'une du peuple qui a placé une bombe de suicide à Mossoul, Irak, ce mois a été identifiée comme Al-Ajmi d'Abdallah Salih, un Koweitien qui a été capturé en Afghanistan, envoyé à Guantanamo et là libéré en 2005 après trois ans. Al-Ajmi a été libéré quand il est retourné à la maison.

« Ce qui vous faites avec celui 70 ou 80 irréductibles, ou celui qui le nombre est, qui ne peut pas être laissent lâchement mais ne seront pas chargés et ne seront pas envoyés à la maison ? » Portes demandées.

Cherchant ce réponse, il a dit qu'il avait parlé aux membres du congrès, Attorney General Michael B. Mukasey et d'autres fonctionnaires d'administration de Bush. « Je n'ai pas trouvé quiconque qui veut que ces terroristes soient placés dans une prison dans leur état à la maison, » qu'il a dit.

Le résultat dit-il « est que nous sommes coincés » avec le compartiment de Guantanamo.

Portes et Amiral Michael Mullen, Président de Chefs de personnel communs, également discuté le 2009 fiscal Département de la défense budget dans leur aspect devant le sous-comité.

En réponse à une question de Président Daniel K. Inouye (La D-Hawaï), Mullen a reconnu que « l'escalade continue » des $180 milliards en coûts s'est associée au salaire, des avantages et la santé pour tout-offrent l'actif-devoir et les forces armées par réservation « ne présage pas bien pour des militaires de cette taille. »

« Il y a des limites que nous frapperons qui, dans les contraintes qui existent, nous forcent à de plus petits militaires ou forçons nous loin de n'importe quel genre de modernisation ou de programmes du lequel nous avons besoin à l'avenir, ou raccourcissons des opérations, » Mullen dit.

Gates called the rising cost of health care “one area that not only concerns us but where we believe we have to get under control.” He said the Defense Department’s health-care costs went from $19.5 billion in 2001 to the projected $42.8 billion sought for next year. Within that figure, he said, are military retirees, who are eligible, along with family members, for Tricare medical and dental programs.

Gates said that by fiscal 2011, “65 percent of the people being served by [the Pentagon’s health-care] budget will be retirees.”

When it was begun in 1995, Tricare Prime had annual enrollment fees of $230 for a single retiree or $460 for a family. Many retirees are in good health and are often working in other jobs, and premiums have not increased since the program started.

Gates said there is a $1 billion shortage in the Pentagon’s proposed fiscal 2009 health-care budget that it hopes to fill with a small increase in premiums for younger retirees.

Veterans groups and others so far have succeeded in persuading Congress not to approve the price hike. Gates said a Tricare premium increase for retirees could help slow rising health costs “without impinging on those who are in the service today.”

Sen. Byron Dorgan (D-S.D.) asked Gates why the United States will still be paying $2.5 billion to train and equip Iraqi security forces next year, when the Baghdad government will earn $70 billion from oil exports this year. Gates replied that U.S. support has dropped each year as the Iraqis have paid more. But he added that by paying something, the United States can continue to keep an eye on the progress of Iraqi security forces.

“We need to scale this gradually . . . so we can keep an oar in, in terms of the quality and in terms of making sure that the training is of the kind that we’d want,” he said.

He added that although the Pentagon continues to provide Iraq with U.S. weapons and equipment, it is gradually moving Iraq to buy those same arms from American suppliers.
