I also hope every single one is tried. Simply because it is the right thing to do. I am not saying that none of them are guilty. I am saying that we are suppose to go by the laws of this country. Like I have said, more than once, don't like the laws, work to change them. Right now all the detainees should get a trial. We are wrong to run that camp the way we have been, period.
All the insults in the world will not change these facts. | First of all, as Alias pointed out, it's a tough stretch to prove that the Geneva Conventions apply to these detainees. You can deny that, but it's still FACT.
Second, you might as well admit this truth: Even if EVERY one of them was tried publicly, and it was PROVEN that they were terrorists, YOU would simply move on to something else to cry-baby about, concerning the Bush Administration. Even if it was PROVEN that Bush had a genius IQ, people like you would still call him a dumb-ass. Even if it was PROVEN that there were WMDs in Iraq, people of your ilk would still call it an illegal occupation. Even if it was PROVEN that the Bush Administration ended up being the most environmentally-friendly administration in history, you tree-huggers would still cry that he "should have done more!". And that is PRECISELY why you're not taken seriously. You blind Bush-hatred has rendered you illogical.
Third, you really do NOT know much about what is going on at Gitmo. Nor do I. You can jump to your conclusions, and I could jump to mine - if I so choose. You cannot prove, in any way, that these detainees are being mistreated in any way. So... why not go by accurate information, rather than just assumptions? |
