With luck, charges will be filed in the Hague against our war criminals. Imagine that. A former American president, VP, Justice Department and Agency officials, NSA, and military generals being named as war criminals in the Hague. What a sad but just day that would be.

Rodney, American Democrats like yourself may not like
Report thisto admit it, but torture is not just the “Republican
way”, it is most definitely the American way and always
has been. Before Bush even.

A stellar example of why Guantanamo needs to be closed.
Bring these prisoners to a U.S. prison where their treatment can be monitored and where they would be subject to trial by jury in lieu of a summary judgment.
The Bill of Rights was not meant to be just for Americans.

“If the Republicans had their way all so called enemy combatants would be treated that way.”
Are you claiming that Democrats are somehow different?

He was tortured by the CIA with the collusion of Mossad. I don’t think the victim of torture actually cares where the torture takes place. To them all that matters is their suffering which in a case such as BN’s is intensified by their sure and certain knowledge that they are innocent of any crime and don’t deserve what is happening to them.

If the Republicans had their way all so called enemy combatants would be treated that way. That may be the Republican way, but it should not be the American way. We too have soldiers in harms way. Torture never works.It fuels more hatred and distrust and creates more terrorists. But that’s what the Republican really want. Terror and fear kept them in power in 2002 and 2004. That’s there hope to regain power. They can’t offer health care, jobs,education,clean energy,housing or food for the unemployed.So they give us guns god gays abortion, terror,and Sara Palin.
