Yes we should let them go... About 666 miles east of Gitmo with a dead animal tied to their leg.. And if they live then Allah or God wanted it to be.. and if they die then that is what Allah or God wanted and that is the way it should be..

Note to US troops, Take no prisoners.. Treat them as they have treated your brothers and sisters.. After all they did not sign the Geneva convention.

Double Tap..

and what would your solution be. Turn them loose?

Pelosi and Reid should be on trial for aiding and abetting the enemy.

What a sham! These people (many of which truly are terrorists) are held as "enemy combatants" as opposed to prisoners of war. If I understand correctly, this was a term used to avoid the application of Geneva conventions to our Gitmo - off US soil - program. Yet here we are trying them for war crimes that are only defined in the conventions. The ironies of twisted self serving legal logic makes me puke and fear for the lives and safety of our own service men. In spite of the crimes many of these people really did commit, there will never be any legitimacy to a trial when the evidence is tainted by the cloud of torture, detention without representation, or even formal charges. When this is over, I know a few in DC that I''d suggest be brought up on war crimes my self. We can''t have it both ways but clearly this is excatly what our administration intends to do telling the rest of the world; "up yours!"

Eventually, the war crimes trials that REALLY matter will begin-- those of G. W. Bush, D!ck Cheney, and their merry band of criminal conspirators!

Will Shrub and Darth be charged as "Enemy Combatants" when they come up for War Crimes Trials???

Attaboy judge. Let''s get on with it.
