Former Gitmo Prisoners Demand Reparations from US
A group of former Guantanamo Bay prison camp detainees have staked out the U.S. embassy in Uruguay in a demonstration meant to pressure the U.S. government to provide them taxpayer-funded reparations for their time spent in the terrorist prison, according to Uruguayan officials.
Three of the six former detainees sent to Uruguay following their release from Gitmo have spent days camped in front of the U.S. embassy located in Montevideo, according to Uruguayan officials and regional reports.

We should have given them .45 caliber reparations......
The US should never have paid reparations to the Japanese who were interred during WWII.
Tell them the reparations disbursement window is located on Gitmo - all complainants must apply in person...
As far as I’m concerned they should have been on prison ships. When we were done with the interrogation we should have dropped them into the north seas where all those polar bears are so hungry.
I can hardly wait to hear Revrunt Sharpton’s take on THIS.
I doubt these terrorists think their victims deserve reparations.
Send in the Drones.
When Pearl Harbor was attacked, thousands immediately applied for permission to leave America and return to Japan.
So many bogged down the applications process that legislation was introduced to limit applications in war time.
I'd love to retrieve the article where I first read this... I remember it was a reputable source.
I say drop them off in the Atlantic near South Africa with a chum bag attached to their necks. Let the great white sharks take care of them.
Why not? Everyone else does.
The internment of Americans of Japanese descent was one of FDR's biggest sins against the constitution and was also a huge land grab the benefited FDR's donors.
The 'reparations' were a pittance compared to what was stolen. What should have occurred was to freeze their assets (houses, lands, etc.) instead of stealing them for non-payment of taxes.
Perfect opportunity for a drone strike.
Should have killed them on the field years ago.
How about a bullet through your temple.
Oh for the old days when they would be taking a dirt nap 10 minutes after they were released.
Good points. I agree.
Give the guy his 72 virgins.
can we give it to them in equivalent pounds of lead?
kinda my idea too...
