“Rights groups challenged President Barack Obama on Thursday to use his second term to close Guantanamo and end drone attacks, warrantless surveillance and extrajudicial killings.  Shortly after he took office in January 2009, Obama declared that he would shutter the prison camp for ‘war on terror’ suspects within a year, saying it served as a recruiting tool for militant and hurt US national security.  Rights groups have strongly criticized the president for his Guantanamo failures and for maintaining other stringent security tactics put into practice under his predecessor George W. Bush.”
