Guantanamo Bay detainees to get a $750K soccer field

The U.S. is almost done installing a $750,000 soccer field at its Guantanamo Bay detention camp in Cuba, FOX News Channel reports. The field, which wll be half the size of a standard American soccer field, will be located at Camp 6 and reserved for \"highly compliant\" detainees. The field was reportedly created to quell behavior problems in camp and limit the interaction between detainees and guards.

Do you think this project should have gone forward?
