We're beating and torturing people? Killing prisoners?
How dare you compare the one to the other. We provide health care,
religious services and food and shelter. We do not make these prisoners work
in our fields or factories.
just, whatever.

You know, after thinking about it, how is this different than the POW
that were held in Vietnam?
Isn't American doing the same thing that the Vietnamese did?

"After U.S. forces attacked al-Qaeda and its Taliban protectors in
October 2001, thousands of prisoners were swept up amid the fighting
across Afghanistan (news

captives remain jailed in a military prison built at Guantanamo Bay
Naval Base in Cuba. Today, the U.S. Supreme Court (news

over whether the Bush administration must justify its claimed right to
hold these captives indefinitely.
However the justices rule, the cases put core U.S. values on trial.
While the war on terrorism may be unique, asserting the right to hold
prisoners forever without court oversight ought to trouble any
American."But does it really trouble Americans? Does anyone actually
believe that these 600 people are all terrorists?
