To many people watch shows like 24 and Prison Break which makes them think that these people would just start running around and killing people. You brought up the guy in Atlanta who had no where near as much tight security as those ones who would have.
So much fear is tossed around specially on Fox that it's sad. And on torture subject go watch Mancow get waterboarded and only lasted 8sec, and said yes it's torture. It only brings more fuel against the US.
LOL You do not have to watch those shows, what the media does (specially fox is a wonder that both of those shows come from fox) is Hype up the fear level. They scare people into thinking these guys are either being set free on us soil and will blow up things or they will escape and do things. We have SUPERMAX Prisons which no one ever escaped from. That is where they would go, Along with the previous world trade center bombers, plus a bunch more bombers.
A lot can go wrong during the transport of the prisoners. I will not let you get away with the "fear" label. It's as invalid as Garafolo's "racist" accusation. You people are all alike. LABEL what you don't like - demonize it - make it go away!
1st off did anything go wrong with the previous prisoners who were sent to the Supermax? No
I will use the Fear Label because that is what it is. They scare you into thinking it's all going to go bad and that their going to be running around the US.
Now what about the ones who are innocent though? You are aware there are some people who have been found innocent and released so surely there are more. What about the taxi driver who was only just near a base, was arrested, tortured until he died.
And they even agreed that he was no threat and had done nothing wrong what so ever. Do you call this Justice? Do you consider this OK? Has the US dropped to China's Level of torture and killing? I agree that many are guilty of their crimes, but the USA should NOT be a place that points a finger at a group of people and says off with their heads. Our founding fathers would be screaming right now for what all has happened.
Good try on making it seem it was a Fictional Character. Show's how much you really know about what is going on. There has been many people who have died due to torture as well. Some may have been guilty as some may have been innocent.
How did you think we got the information that there were WMD in Iraq and that there was links al-Qaeda? Which BTW There was no Links, and No WMD. The entire reasoning behind Iraq War.
Are you speaking of Dilawar? Go wiki it there is much documented information on that issue.
Now as for the Iraq war no matter what , we went in because purposely there were WMD, which was not there. I think you could at least admit to that or are you to far off to the right to even admit it?
You have completely lost rational perspective. If it is rogue that some rogue army interrogators killed Dilawar, that does not mean that all of America is culpable. You "blame America first" crowd just LOVE that stuff don't you? How many cases of torture have you looked into that have occurred in Cuba?
Of Course we went into Iraq purposely...or didn't you know that there was TOTURE going on there that had to be stopped?
Oh so now your going to Blame the Troops? Really? YOU WANT TO GO THERE? You want to Blame our Troops who were giving PERMISSION To use these type of torture tactics and then toss them under the bus? WTF Do you have any respect for them? Do you think it's ok for the people in charge to issue these wrong-doings however they should not be held responsible?
These "Enhanced Integration Methods" were agreed upon By Cheney Him self and he is even tossing our troops under the bus. Many troops were doing just what they were ordered to do. Was it right? HELL NO, But We should Punish those who ordered it. You say I Blame America 1st? I Blame the Higher ups for doing this and then pushing the soldiers under the Bus to get hit for the higher ups wrong doing. And you supporting them makes you no better then them.
If she knew about It I will. I will spit on ANYONE Who did. I do not care if they are republicans, democrats or independents. Do you really think that should matter? I am all for a full investigation into the torture that was done and all the high level ups who issues it brought to justice. Will this really happen? Prolly not, but I would love for it to.
So thanks for the come back as you didn't deny it, and you clearly blame our troops. Real good of an American you are I see.
waterboarding is torture.. Go watch Mancow get waterboarded he really didn't think it was torture till afterwards.. BTW Many of the ones who died had allot more then waterboarding done to them.
You clearly do not understand shit. As I said You blamed our troops for this and there for I spit on your un-American ass for doing so.
Mancow is a pussy. My father in law was waterboarded as part of his military training...?He says it is not torture. I don't blame out troops for any torture. The orders they followed were correct. The few who went too far are the only ones responsible. Spit all you want - idiot - you don't know me....
I disagree with what your father in law has said, many who have been waterboarded has said it is torture. Now people in the Armed forces are going to be pushed so that they can withstand certain types of torture including waterboarding. Why do you think they even do it? It's against the Geneva Convention to do waterboarding on prisoners.
As I said your a sad example of what some Americans have become under the fear tactics.
As I said many have agreed that waterboarding is torture. Simple as That
"rational discrimination"
Oh please explain this to me, I want to know the mind of a nut job..
BTW Are you a religious person? The only reason I ask is because usually it does seem someone who is religious will support torture easier then those who aren't.
Why do you question the judicial system of America. You claim that it is not good. In that case, Why don't you move out to Washington and join a cult for protection
Can I not "question authority?' I thought that was a big libby mantra. But now you say I shouldn't....well - OK kinda seems hypocritical to me...Why don't you make more realistic and constructive suggestions and maybe I won't consider you such a stump...
Yes, the judicial system is not perfect. If you think it is - prove it. what's not American about being liberal? What's not American about using a slang term?
I am not the one making a claim. I simply pointed out your dis-trust in our legal system. I also pointed out your stereotyping. Must feel powerful hiding behind a faced screen of glory. eh. What ever makes you feel important.
You compare prisioners of gitmo, to prisioners of terrorists. Can you prove that the prisioners in gitmo are in fact terrorist.Thanks Bush's rendition laws anyone who is "suspected" can be kidnapped,imprisioned, and torture without trial. Whatever happened to innocent until proven guilty. Convince me that all the prisioners in Gitmo are terrorist and should be kept there.
OK - there i documented proof that many of the detainees who were released were involved in subsequent terror attacks or recaptured in the commission of such plots...
There is also documented proof od detainees who were not terrorist or not invloved in terroristc activities, who were kidnapped, and torture at GITMO, and then let go; because they were innocent. That was easier!!
you cant justify something and not being an abuse just because a group without any morals treats people worse.
you are assuming that all the people held at gitmo all terrorists which is not true for example only a few days three gitmo prisoners were realsed by the supreme court because there was NO evidence against them NONE and they were held for 6 YEARS!
The whole reason for closing Gitmo is so the detanies would have a fair trail if they are guilty as you assume whats wrong with that?
Actually there was evidence, and if you knew anything about the case you would understand that the judge who released them didn't want to release them, but had to because "hearsay" evidence, along with three short transcripts, isn't enough to stand up in civilian court. The same judge's order to deny their release was overruled by the Supreme Court, then sent back to his desk so he had no choice. In fact, 50 of the terrorists we've released have been recaptured fighting against our troops.
wrong, I think you must be thinking of a different case. Im sorry because I said 3 when I meant 5. it was 5 Algerians who were released by judge Leon (who was appointed by Bush) Leon heard the case and released that the JD had no evidence that they had ever even plotted to attack America. Leon even said to the JD that if you have any sense at all you will not appeal because there is no way the appeal will win and youll be imprisoning innocent men for even longer, and this is a pro Bush judge
this guy must know nothing of the federal prison system. The US marshall service have never lost a prisoner. escape from the this system is damn near possible. They would be tried in federal court not civil
CIVILIAN courts...ATLANTA, Georgia (CNN) -- Brian Nichols was convicted Friday of murdering four people in a shooting rampage that began at a courthouse in Atlanta, Georgia. The jury next must decide whether he should be executed for his crimes.
By trying prisoners in criminal court you have to discuss issues which are sensitive to national security. By holding military tribunals, we are assured that these terrorists won't get off the hook due to a technicality. If they are aquitted in those trials, we know it's legit, not because of some procedural mistake which could be the case in civilian court. These are bad guys, and it's very important that they don't slip through the cracks unless they truly are innocent.
I'm not interested in discussing a tangential point about the court...The point is, right now the terrorists are not even on U.S. soil. Bring them here to prosecute, and help them with their first step in compromising our security - getting in...
no - not out of the jail, but out of the courthouse, or during the transport to and from the courthouse during one of their MANY appearances. You don't mind if we route all those transports through your neighborhood do ya?
To many people watch shows like 24 and Prison Break which makes them think that these people would just start running around and killing people. You brought up the guy in Atlanta who had no where near as much tight security as those ones who would have.
