------------------------------------------------------------



The Washington Post is reporting at least ten European countries have
agreed to accept prisoners from Guantanamo Bay. Five other European
Union countries are also said to be considering proposals to resettle
Guantanamo prisoners. The US has cleared around eighty of Guantanamo’s
229 remaining prisoners for release.
