Untrue. He's been trying to close it in a responsible fashion
But you notice we are not taking prisoners now.
?? You're claiming we don't take people prisoners??????
We're not putting them in indefinite detention if that's what you
mean... beyond Due Process.
detainees we released turned to terrorism thanks to Bush putting them
there in the first place. Many of them didn't deserve to be there, and
they were radicalized because of it. Some were basically children.
Sure, we needed Gitmo like another hole in the head.
How old do you have to be to be a terrorist? 14-15?
I agree we should have just asked them a few questions and thrown them
out the door of the helicopter before they got back to the base
Ah.. the humanitarian in you. That's gross.
There's never been a successful escape from a super max prison. Many
terrorists are already in them. We don't need Gitmo, but try telling
that to the wackos who don't want them on our "soil."
That is not the issue. Because these people were taken in combat we do
not usually have the chain of evidence to prosecute this in a US
court.
Actually, it is the issue. If we hadn't tortured them, we would have a
chain of evidence. In any case, they could be held in humane
conditions.
