Obviously staged by the CIA to bolster claims that Islamofascism is a world-wide threat.

Why were not these persons released before?
Notice that they are now a part of a legal process, something they were denied in Gitmo.
Why has the United States become afraid to try these folks in our Courts?
If the evidence is there to convict they will be convicted.
After all these years there is probably little knowledge that would surface in court that could jeopardize our National security.
We have a super max here in Colorado that can place them in solitary for the rest of their lives if they are convicted.

We are supposed to have these tribunals for Gitmo..
After all these years where are the trials?
Geeze..either there is evidence or not.
How many Gitmo detainees have been released?
I don't know...
I can tell you how many have been convicted by Gitmo tribunal....zero

As has been explained to you many times, nogo war, but you deliberately pretend never to have heard of the arguments - probably because you have no answer.

The idea that we can only hold captured combatants if we have "evidence" to support a criminal conviction is simply false and ludicrous.

Combatants can be held during hostilities under the laws of war. This has been true for millenia. Only rabid BDS causes people to ignore that fact. Converting war into a criminal justice question is only one of many completely stupid ideas you continually flog.

But the real effect of the BDS crowd's obsession with Guantanamo is that it will be dismantled. The most open and humane prisoner of war camp in history will be destroyed by your BDS obsessions. Instead, detainees will be held in secret facilities world wide with less transparency. You will have actually made things worse with your obsession. And you don't seem to have a clue.

I don't know why they even moved them to GITMO. After they got the info from them, execute them. That's what they do to their POW's.

In fact, load them all on a old boat and send them back to the ME. On the way, if a boiler exploded, or one of their IE's went off, oh well, TS.

Bet that would really send the bleeding hearts up the wall. Then we could send the BH's, with scuba gear, down about 3 or 4 thousand feet to gather evidence on what happened. Be the BH's wouldn't dare dive that deep, would they. But hey, just an idea.

Well these guys must not have been the 30% that are obviously completely innocent.

"I don't know why they even moved them to GITMO. After they got the info from them, execute them. That's what they do to their POW's."

Because Allen wants us to be just like them.

There is a rather significant advantage to Guantanamo Bay, we don't have to worry about terrorist jailbreaks.
