Its time to close Gitmo and just these prisoners back over to the Afghan government. Let them handle the human rights issue. I'm sure the prisoners would be begging to come back to Gitmo and have those terrible Marines mishandle them.

I'm guessing the Afghanis would simply let them back into the general population.

What we should have done is declare them POWs. That way, you can hold them until the war is over, and they have no rights except as set forth in the Geneva Convention, which isn't much.
