Follow on Google News | Retired U.S. Major Tells How Obama Got OsamaWith the death of Osama Bin Laden, Gitmo author and former U.S. Army Reserve Major Montgomery J. Granger applauds the intelligence efforts that ended in the terrorist’s death.
Granger stated, “The facts are in, Osama bin Laden was cornered and killed as a direct result of information gathered from Gitmo detainees. And, as we learned in President Obama’s speech, he gave CIA Chief Leon Panetta marching orders in early 2009 to make his ‘top priority’ to kill or capture Osama bin Laden.” Granger believes this proves the President never intended to close Gitmo. “It also means the President took his oath and primary role during time of war, Commander in Chief, very seriously, just like his hero, Abraham Lincoln did during the Civil War.” He added, “I suspected as much last year when I was interviewed by Marvin Scott of WPIX Channel 11 in New York, where I hypothesized that Obama would keep the facility open because of its value http://onecent.us/ Granger of Long Island, N.Y., was assigned as a medical service officer responsible for the care and treatment of detainees in both Iraq and in Guantanamo Bay. A 22-year, three-time mobilized reserve major, wrote the book Saving Grace at Guantanamo Bay: A Memoir of a Citizen Warrior about his time at Gitmo. To further explain the rules at Gitmo, Granger said detractors have falsely accused the U.S. of holding Gitmo detainees illegally and under conditions that constitute abuse or torture, while nothing could be further from the truth. “International Committee of the Red Cross physicians I worked with, both at Gitmo in 2002 and in Iraq in 2005, told me that nobody does detention operations better than the United States.” Saving Grace at Guantanamo Bay is a real story about what it’s like to take care of people who want to kill you on a daily basis. For the dedicated men and women who serve there, it's a daily “emotional train wreck,” according to the author, where instinct to heal detainees of their wounds collides with strict detention facility safety rules meant to protect U.S. personnel and other detainees from harm. Saving Grace at Guantanamo Bay: A Memoir of a Citizen Warrior is Granger’s story of working detention and medical duty with the Joint Task Force 160 U.S. Naval Station in Guantanamo Bay from February to June, 2002. Granger found himself the ranking Army Medical Department officer in a joint military operation like no other before it. His job was taking care of alleged terrorists, just months following 9/11.
