Default Looks like we need to keep our camps in Guantanamo Bay open indefinitely

Isn't this just nice - http://license.icopyright.net/user/v...AxMDIzNw%3D%3D

Because the very people they release go out and carry out what they originally planned in the first place. So why close it down? It seems very effective to me in keeping idiots like this from strapping explosives on.

The ineffective part is that the detainees are not being served justice quick enough. Think NATO 5.56 injections via firing squad.

They have the right to do this, so I think they are being extremely over humane by keeping them alive in the camps, no? What do you think? I agree with you however.

I think executions should be televised too. Heck even pay-for-view would be fine by me.

Because we don't have the balls. And to try and claim the moral high ground in a fight where there is no place for morality. IMO.

Explain why Guantanamo is illegal.

And three years? Tough. Why should POW's be repatriated BEFORE their organizations stop waging war on the US?

Well that would be logical if they were awarded the status of POW's.

Another thing that I find A little strange is that although Guantanamo is US terrirory, US law doesn't seem to apply there? :hmm:

Pretty much. Our laws don't apply to the Philippines (another US territory) either for example, so if you lived there, you get all the benefits from the USA, but you don't even have to pay taxes. Maybe I should move!

I thought the Phillipines are an independant republic, did the US re-take control over them while I was away at work?

It just goes to show you that these idiots are not going to stop. Nor are they going to be rehabilitated. Their brainwashing is too strong. Even if you TRY to "rehabilitate" these guys, their beliefs are so ingrained in them that they'll just tell people what they want to hear so they can get released and continue with the bloodshed.

You may be right. Let me look it up. I know anyone that lives there can come here without restriction, etc.
