"Our actions in the Middle East over the last 15 years have already guaranteed radical Muslims quite enough ammunition to kill Americans for the next century, even if Guantanamo did not exist"

About this Quote

This quote by Nick Clooney is a powerful statement about the consequences of US actions in the Middle East over the previous 15 years. Clooney is suggesting that the US has provided radical Muslims with adequate "ammunition" to kill Americans for the next century, regardless of whether Guantanamo exists. This implies that the US has produced a situation in which extreme Muslims have actually been given a factor to hate and attack Americans, which this situation will not be resolved by closing Guantanamo. Clooney is cautioning that the US must take duty for its actions in the Middle East and recognize the repercussions of its actions, otherwise it will continue to face violence and hatred from radical Muslims for many years to come.
