Show me proof that they are innocent.

See how that works...asking people questions they can't possibly answer to try and prove your point?

The best thing you could do regarding this issue is, frankly, to shut up.

Wrong.

Bottom line. GITMO is full of people caught on the battlefield. Full of people trying to kill civilians as well. When someone is caught on the battlefield pointing a gun at you - they are not 'innocent' people.

YOU people wanted GITMO closed.
Now YOU people take the terrorists.
Either that or shut up, MYOB, and stop being hypocrites.

I wholeheartedly retract the 'I'm sad to say' part of the above post.

Reduced to personal attacks now are we?

I'm done with this thread. Intelligent discussion is out the window.

Understand what the thread is about.

The point you seem to be missing is this. The only reason Bush is asking people to take some of these prisoners is because every other country in the world is demanding that we close the prison.

I don't think for one second that the US government does what the rest of the world wants, lol. Worldwide opinion means zilch to the US government. The in-coming adminastration purportedly does not wantthe human-rights-lacking place. Perhaps it is more to do with this, and, a reflection of US opinion (as this was an Obama election promise), as opposed to anything 'demanded' from the rest of the world.

Are you really suggesting the Bush adminastration is fazed by worldwide 'demands', lmao.

take care

Gitmo may close to housing "Illegal Enemy Combatants" however I doubt they are going to dismantle it. It after all is the perfect place to hold "dissidents" or those people who are too dangerous to keep in US prisons.

It's a valuable site for the US to house those they feel are against the "Order" they wish to place on the world. The problem? It's too highly publicised now. They need to remove the visible detainees in order to quell the international recognition of such an obvious detainment camp.

Of all of the reported FEMA camps I have heard of on this site. Gitmo would be the perfect location to start "housing" people when TSHTF.

This is PR. This is spin. This is one hand distracting you while the other does the nefarious deed. "Close Gitmo" just means emptying out of the people that the world knows of. It won't close, it will just be reconfigured after the media attention dies down.
