I can justify Gitmo completely
No you can't, the only way you have ever attempted to justify it is by portraying it as something that it isn't, and you have just done exactlythe same again.
Try again tater, what is the facility annd what is its purpose, until you get that straight all your "justifications" are nowhere even near the subject let alone justifying it.

Please, defend drone attacks using the same rationale that attacks gitmo.
Errrr ...what is the specific purpose of drones and the attacks which are launched using them?
Are they doing it?

See how easy it is, if the answers to questions match you can get the justification.
But your aguement is like saying drones scare pigeons, some pigeons are scared, that means the drones attacks are justified.

United States in my opinion has been quite discredited by the way he has performed the operation (have played the role of jury, judge and executioner). You can not fight terrorism with more terrorism. Enter a sovereign country and do what they want ...

U.S. policy in many countries has not exactly been "very democratic. " Many South American democracies have been overthrown (Arbenz in Guatemala "" Operation PBSUCCESS, Allende in Chile, etc.) I am against any form of totalitarianism and terrorism but unfortunately who sows the wind reaps the whirlwind.

President Obama has a large challenge ahead: Health Reform. Less military spending and more internal reforms. If you do not have access to decent public health ... It is more profitable to scare people with possible terrorist acts. It's much easier to control. Are you afraid of not thinking.

Sorry for my English.

It would certainly be nice if the focus would shift toward fixing our internal problems. In fact, it might even be unequivocally the most awesome thing that could ever happen to our country. However, we all know how important it is to go tromping around the globe smacking every little problem with a great big hammer... never mind that it costs trillions of vital dollars.

You're babbling. He gave a reasoned and reasonable argument. He may be wrong, but you're not addressing his argument, you're just telling him he's wrong because you're right, and you end by making up a silly comparison that has not relation to anything he said. You like to tell other people they don't know anything, yet you don't present any real case, just your anger. This is why you get accused of trolling so much.

I don't claim to know the answers here, but at least Tater tries to discuss the issue, which you don't seem to be capable of.

No, if the arguement he gives has nothing to do with the purpose of the facility then it is neither a reasoned or reasonable arguement.

Quote:

You mean pigeons are nothing to do with the intentions of the makers of the of drones and scaring pigeons are not what drones were meant to be used for?
whodathunkit
but if they do scare pigeons that means it is a reasonable arguement for their existance and use isn't it

No tater avoids the issue, he has to as even the former sec. of defence says it wasn't being used as it was intended..... and he was involved setting the whole operation up and justifying its creation in the first place so he should know
Steve what tater is justifying with his arguement is just about every official prison or holding facility apart from the one in question.
