Sooooo...you wanna be like the guy with the drill do you?

Barrack Obama claimed to shut down guantanomo bay within a year. it has still not been done torture still happens despite what America says and they recently released 50 prisoners into bermuda without permision from the UK government so now they have almost all been kicked out and have no where to live. if they didnt take random people in the first place none of this would have happened, not just in Bermuda but the canaries' as well. this whole guantanomo thing is mass-hysteria.

So, this is Amnesty International in the US?

You should know what Amnesty International Germany tells German torture victims:

Amnesty International never ever takes action against the country they are from. My brother Markus Bott had been tortured by the German BND during 5.5 years, even in public. He was assassinated on 11.7.09 because of our homepage.

and just now (Sep-2010): Dr Aafia Siddiqui - whether guilty or not- her trial was not fair at all

I hate terriosts as mush as Americans, In saying that let me say this. Remember American history and the constitution. In my opinnion there is no greater type of pratiot then A US citizen following the constitution and Bill of rights. What Bush did was nealry destroy the foundation of the US. Torture has never worked in the past present and will never work in the future. Obama is kind, If it up to me the powers that be that wrote the torture memos with be in jail!!!!!!!!!!

More leftist fantasy.

I don't know anyone starving and I'm NOT rich. There's halfway houses and welfare for anyone who needs it.

Watch David Kay's videos on YouTube where he said we were lucky we invaded Iraq when we did. Iraq had many chemical weapon and biological weapon laboratories.

Saddam Hussein may not have had any real stockpile of WMDs - but he would've developed WMDs eventually if we hadn't intervened.

Hussain didnt claim to have WMD,British and US intel.claimed he had them and could deploy them in 45 mins.the whole invasion hinged on just that.

Was S.H. a terrorist?

Terrorism:"the use of thraets or violence for political purposes".

whom is terrorising whom?

were they a threat to you or I?

Thats some GDP!!! and no free national health..amazing..and WHO says 1 in 10 people in US dont know where the next meal is coming from,that my friend costitutes a state of emergency.living the dream?

[joba606]

What did I say about WMDs?

I said that Saddam Hussein fooled the entire world - not just the U.S. - into thinking he had WMDs when he didn't.

The U.S. wants to defeat terrorism. That won't happen by being nice to terrorists.

Yes, I'm a right wing neoconservative Republican.

[gazbev]

very well researched but arnt you avoiding questions,i think we can both agree on one thing and that is there are many other countries whose people need help for persecution now,the reasons for not helping are geo-political.

still no wmd!!!!!!!

Is it safe to say you are right wing?

Amnesty international highlight US brutality because the US condones this type of treatment in other countries,it is the superpower who is supposed to be policing the world dont do as I do ,do what I say situation
