The US court system is slowly working out what is legal at GITMO. The system works.
Slowly is the operative word. The system might appear to work if you've not been held without trial for 6 years...
People not guilty of crimes get caught up in nets everyday everywhere. It's called life. The idea is to keep your eyes open and don't get in the car with a bunch of idiots on a Saturday night joyride.

I understand some people got ratted to the CIA just because they lived on another block and had a different last name. That shit happens everywhere too. Eventually, it gets sorted. The procedure at GITMO has been dynamic. It was severe initially because the USA didn't know what it was up against. The farther down the road the more changes have been made. It's a massive bureaucracy. I think it's performed fairly well. It's tough for individuals caught up in the net but that sort of thing happens everyday everywhere, as I said.

That's an easy thing to say, from the freedom of your keyboard.

Besides which most democratic nations have due process and habeas corpus to ensure that you can't be arbitrarily detained or that, if you are, you have the right to face your accusers and the accusations against you.

Due process is there for a reason and dates all the way back to 1217 and the Magna Carta. Dismissing that so whimsically and easily is not a road that should be travelled.

And you're still contributing nothing but snarky, pointless, little comments, quelle surprise.

One day you might wake up to find that you have had your rights taken away from you Tex. Then you'll be desperate for someone to speak up on your behalf. Anyone.

Nah, I stay on the right side of the law.
Clean as a Boy Scout.

You play with fire you're going to get burned. Pretty simple. These terrorists are using the laws of a land they've never been to to try to twist free.

Ain't gonna work.

I said your rights taken away from you, nothing to do with staying on the 'right side' of the law.

It's already happening. You, as an American citizen, have less rights today than you had 7yrs ago. Imagine what the next 7yrs could bring.

Went to the zoo in KL today - met some really lovely kids over here in Malaysia for a vacation - three girls and a boy (their parents were chilling in the shade by the lake) were playing with our kids and doing the pony rides, chasing pelicans and getting all sticky with melting ice cream, photos were taken, e-mail addresses exchanged with our eldest - lots and lots of fun.


They are from Oman . . . fucking Muslims, filthy Arab scum.






(The last sentence completely sarcastic,of course- just to show people like PaulSmithson what a complete loser he is)

Being of a certain religion or nationality isn't a problem.
Being a para military on a battlefield, tossing hand grenades is.
Well, that's not really a problem either unless you get caught.
Then, you're screwed.

If I was in Afghanistan a few months after 9-11, near an Al Queda camp, hanging out with a bunch of heavily armed guys trying to kill westerners -- well, it's a gamble isn't it?

Your day at the zoo sounds very nice PH.
