Well, the point that bothers me most is that everyone seems to believe that every guy in Guantanamo is guilty. We had a case recently when a German citizen had to be released from Guantanamo because he was innocent.
How do you know that all of them are guilty? Almost no one has been tried. You can throw everyone in there as "a matter of national security" and don't have to proof a thing. They don't have a chance to defend themselves. That's what is unjust. That are basic rules of every country that considers it self a state under the rule of law.
As I already said, if they are guilty let them rot in hell, but you have to proof it. Otherwise you are acting like China or North Korea.
I really don't like the Islam at all. (some remember my position on Christianity from the thread about the “disturbing Christian website"? I think the Islam is much worse.) And therefore we shouldn't lower ourselves to their level.
By the way, there is a saying that goes:
One who is fighting a monster must be very careful not to become a monster himself.
(I forgot where I have it from and from what nation it was, but I think it is true.)
