Just keep him out of New Jersey, we would not want him to get the wrong idea.

Guess he didn't get the: "Gitmo is a hell-hole of a concentration camp" memo.

This isn't the first story like this coming out of Gitmo. Recently, a young teen-ager was released and his father was interviewed. Said it was the best thing that could have happened to him. He was well fed and cared for and got an education, including learning English, that he could never have received in Afghanistan. He came back a more mature young man.

But he said yesterday he did not resent his captors and Camp Delta was not as bad as rural Afghanistan.

Sorry, pal. Let's assume that for every 100 former Gitmo detainees who have fallen in love with America, there's only one who wants to come here to blow something up. That's still too many. Maybe instead you can try to make Afghanistan a little bit more like America.

There's hope for these guys yet. At least for some of them.

FOR a man who had just been freed after two years in Guantanamo Bay, it seemed odd that Haji Osman said he wanted to visit the "good people" in the US, writes Hamida Ghafour.

Bad news for domestic bad guys!

No, it doesn't seem a bit odd to me.

Given the choice of rural Afghanistan or Gitmo, I'd take Gitmo everytime.

Hell, given the choice of rural Afghanistan or a giant flaming tarpit, I might go the tarpit route.
