Guantánamo Bay files: 'The vast majority were not extremists'

[CardinalSergeant]

'extremists' i.e. people who are angry that we consistently bomb and pillage their homelands

@CardinalSergeant I was thinking the same thing =/ why does America do that why does it want to kill all the Muslims? =(

No it's not ideal, but what is 'ideal'?

Is it 'ideal' to leave them all for some of them (however small a number it would be) to plot and excecute acts of deadly terrorism?



[GoldenbanjoDJ]

Of the 779 total, 603 have been released, with a further 39 of 54 acquitted.

"Only a very small number are serious"... So how do you propose we weed out the serious ones? And as far as I know all it takes is one extremist to make a bomb and blow it up on a bus, killing hundreds of people. 10 free extremists like that would result in more deaths than the amount released and acquitted in your figures... So yes, the establishment is worth it.

@GoldenbanjoDJ Somebody should lock you in too. You might be a terrorist it would be worth it. Totally worth it. Who cares if you're innocent. Atleast they will have some actually guilty people.

@heartcoredisaster

Complete strawman argument. You think that people literally pull people off the street almost at random and lock them up? You keep telling yourself that.

@GoldenbanjoDJ LMAO strawman arguement? Haha you genius i live in Pakistan..I'v seen it happy our government would decide they need money and American's would pay for the people. The government would randomly choose people (you should believe this knowing how incompetant our government is) and SELL them to america for a few thousand dollars. Don't talk about stuff you know nothing about. Stupid people like you living in holes believing what the media throws at you.
