Water can get boring, so keep a variety of clear liquids on hand. On the day before your colonoscopy â when you're restricted to clear liquids â you can have popsicles, Jell-O, clear broth, coffee or tea (without milk or creamer), soft drinks, Italian ice, or Gatorade. But take nothing with red, blue, or purple dye.
Guantanamo Bay: violence, hunger strikes and protests. Violent clashes, hunger strikes and growing calls for its closure â what is happening in Guantanamo Bay, three years after its promised closure? At the weekend, following months of increased tensions at the Cuban prison camp, detainees attacked their guards with makeshift weapons.
In February 2011, U.S. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said that Guantanamo Bay was unlikely to be closed, due to opposition in the Congress. Congress particularly opposed moving prisoners to facilities in the United States for detention or trial. In April 2011, Wikileaks began publishing 779 secret files relating to prisoners in the Guantanamo Bay detention camp.
