LOL thats the hilarious part, capture law abiding citizens hold them for 7 years withot charge whop their asses send them to moroco for them to cut their ball sacks with razor blades then stick them in gitmo and constantly bash them as evil and terrorist.

Release them and say "opps my bad" and expect them not to turn into terrorists.

they have now created someone who they are afraid to release.

Cheney and the rest created many of the terrorists their trying to fight.

Being held on "vague" charges?

In the real world we call those TRUMPED UP charges. Are some of the detainees actually hostages?

[terpis]

Can you say "NYT retraction"?

Turn out it's more like "1 in 20" who are "confirmed OR SUSPECTED" to have returned--or to have been radicalized by gitmo-- to militancy "& RELATED ACTIVITY" .

If you can't report something accurate, don't report anything at all.

yea exactly, everyone is focusing on who will close the barn door after the horse has been doing laps around the barn...

"Oh no what do we do with prisoners?" we ask after 7 years, for some inmates. Just NOW we wonder what to do with them, after they have been tortured for years on end.

A gentle return to their homelands, along with compensation and some sense of justice.

In fact the inmates who can, should prosecute the US government for illegal detention.

[micahgee]

Yes so to stop "them" we will indefinitely lock-up and torture and even kill anyone who the CIA thinks MAY in the future kill Americans.

To prevent attacks "on the homeland" to use Cheney's disgustingly ignorant term, the US has to wage aggressive war all over the world.

To prevent attacks, the US needs 700+ military bases and more defense spending than the rest of the world combined.

So "terrorists" just came from nowhere right? Oh yea barely 20 years ago they were being paid by the CIA...

If a government held me without charges for years I would want to destroy it after I got out.

[Rainsdad]

yeah i agree we should let them bomb our ships, atttack embassies, and bring down skyscrapers, i mean it was only like 20 or 30 that did that right, maybe those are just the bad seeds, eventually all the bad ones will blow themselves up, sure they might take a few thousand Americans with them, but once they see that we wont retaliate theyll either stop or run out of bombers right? lets not worry about the brain washing of the kids of their nation, or their leaders when they say we must all die

we are here for you...if you ever start playing guitar hit me up

[micahgee]

Dude do you have any clue how many people in Gitmo are totally innocent and have been brutalized and killed in the quest for "perfect security"??

Anyone who stands by the "war on terror" is morally no different than any terrorist.

War on Terror = War OF Terror

[micahgee]

exactly!!!

[micahgee]

exactly!!!

So more soldiers have died in Iraq than people died in 9/11 and Iraq had NOTHING to do with 9/11...

In fact we did the only thing WORSE than doing nothing: starting never ending wars!!!

I didn't vote for Obama either, I love how quick people label me as an Obama voter even though I am very critical of him...

[micahgee]

Al-Qaeda didn't come from nowhere, they didn't come from under a rock,

Al-Qaeda was created by the CIA by way of the ISI (Pakistani Intelligence)

If anyone is pro-terrorist it is the CIA who gives money and weapons to armed groups worldwide!

If these evil men are so horrible why were they given Stingers by the CIA barely 20 years ago???
