:shocking:
Sounds great, but what court is going to try the US?
Remember how other Guantanamo inmates have recently won the right to challenge their incarceration on US Courts. I understand the hearings will be happening soon. It'll be very interesting to see what happens...
What gets me is they are arrested for non-crimes, even if you catch them standing in the middle of a terrorist training camp, gun in hand, thats not a crime!
Only if you can prove definatively that they are going to attack the US or UK then you can arrest them.
Plus of course there is the whole issue of actually the US arresting foreign nationals in a foreign land, something which goes against international law.
a man on gmtv was saying they'd been subjected to things like having broom handles shoved up their arses and stuff :eek:
What makes them say that if the British services can release them without charge. C.unts. :mad:
Because any 'evidence' which they gained in Cuba will not be admissable in court here because its gained under torture.
So, for all we know they may have admitted all kinds of things there, but it wont stand up in court.
Make no mistake- people in the 23rd Century will still talk about Guantanamo Bay and what it made the US become...
Its just SO bloody short sighted.
Thus, for them to step up and admit wrongful detention and the innocence of those they cannot, through due process and burden of proof, convict of any real crimes would be to undermine the propaganda and myth upon which their entire agenda is established and pursued.
Only through the international community coming to its senses, rather than sniffing for a meagre slice of the expected profits, will the increasingly brazen criminality of this administration and its policy-directing "think tanks" finally be called to account, indictment and judgement (not least of which on the basis of the betrayal of nearly every facet of the Nuremberg Principles let alone the Geneva and Vienna Conventions).
Apparently they have offered it to the 'major US networks' but there was no interest! Surprise.
The Fourth Estate is now the playground of purely elite interest and disinformation in accordance with the systematic strategy of dumbing the nation down into little more than easily manipulated reactionist, hyper-consumeristic cattle.

BAM!
In go the Delta Force.
So Matadore, in view that the British authorities have concluded there is nothing to suggest the men have broken any laws, how do you feel about British citizens being illegally imprisoned and tortured by a foreign power for three years?
I'm sure you wouldn't object if you were taken there and tortured then.
Absolutely pathetic.
When are you applying for your Green Card and burning your British passport? Clearly you must be disgusted that the British government won't lock up those who the US dislikes...
I bet you stand up when you hear the Stars and Stripes on the telly…
some day there'll be an american crusade against long haired metallers, see how you'll feel then when you're a victim of "necessary evil".
btw i know there won't i'm just using an analogy.
And, like it or not, this is a war we are fighting, similar , if not in nature, than in stakes, to the wars the West fought against Nazi Germany and the Soviets in the 20th century.
Yes, some methods used may be morally questionable, but when you are fighting a war then you msut make difficult decisions.
Of course one impotant detachment from the Cold War is that the US will no longer support odious foreign regimes. We dont have the threat of Soviet tyranny forcing our hand to support dictatorships.
