| - | A lot of times when I've been down there | 0:00 |
| I've been taking photos as well. | 0:01 | |
| And that's one of the most frustrating parts, | 0:03 | |
| because, | 0:06 | |
| every, | 0:07 | |
| it's the only place in the world I've ever had, | 0:08 | |
| that every picture you take has to go through | 0:10 | |
| what's called an OPSEC. | 0:13 | |
| An Operational Security Review, every single frame. | 0:14 | |
| And there's rules on what you can and can't shoot. | 0:18 | |
| And again some of the rules make sense. | 0:21 | |
| This is a prison where Khalid Sheikh Mohammed | 0:24 | |
| and and others, who is a very senior, allegedly, | 0:27 | |
| a very senior Al-Qaeda member and others are detained. | 0:30 | |
| It's should be secure. | 0:33 | |
| But some of the rules are just ridiculous. | 0:35 | |
| And one that used to enraged me was | 0:38 | |
| no photo could show a sliver of the ocean, | 0:41 | |
| could show the water. | 0:44 | |
| And we would have these ridiculous debates | 0:46 | |
| with these poor public affairs officers | 0:49 | |
| who are only enforcing what they've been told, | 0:51 | |
| saying, you know you can go on Google Earth | 0:53 | |
| and see the entire base, you know. | 0:56 | |
| Al Qaeda knows that Cuba is an Island. | 0:58 | |
| You know, I think we can let this one go. | 1:01 | |
| So, but it was just, | 1:03 | |
| you know once the rules were in, | 1:05 | |
| that photo would be deleted. | 1:07 |
