I agree with the senator that says 'some of them should be executed' - let's do it and do it now. examples need to be set.

Well, if we decide we can't hold them forever, and they need to be tried, it seems to me that the appropriate thing to do is to give them full due process rights and full-dress criminal trials under the law...of the place they committed their crimes. Which is to say, the republics of Afghanistan and of Iraq, both functioning democracies with legal systems, should be eventually given full custody of these prisoners along with their legal dossiers, to give them appropriate trials. That would, after all, be full due process as required under international law.

We should hold them on a Navy ship about 500 miles from shore. We can't help it if they tried to escape by jumping overboard in the dark of night.

This whole Guantanamo thing burns my buns a bit.

On the one side I agree with the left in that we need to do something ... but I do not agree with what nonsense they say, i.e. 'close the base', 'it's an embarassment', etc.

What moron wants to release these terrorists? Especially knowing what the results of the 'experiment' (I would think it should be called) of when the last '4' that were released, i.e. their showing up to fight our soldiers as soon as they could.

WHY don't we set up a tribunal and trial on each prisoner? It is idiotic to try to hold these creeps till the 'end of the war' or whatever, as there may never be an end of this war. Did we hold the spys we caught till the end of the 'cold war'? No, we tried, convicted and sentenced them. Why is this any different for this 'war on terror' that will probably last as long or longer as the cold war?

In fact, it will last longer precicely because we are NOT doing anything with the prisoners except giving them club med treatment. Who can say that the four that were released and were back fighting our soldiers didn't do it with the hope of getting a trip back to Guantanamo because of all the great accomodations!! ;-)

Enough!!! Set up the tribunal and start to convict, sentence and hopefully have some summary executions and make them public. This war on terror has to quit being so politically correct and start being serious!!! Off with their heads!!

Republican senators called on Wednesday for the rights of foreign terrorism suspects at Guantanamo Bay prison to be legally defined even as the Bush administration said the inmates could be jailed there "in perpetuity."

What counties do these "foreign terrorism suspects" originate from?

...and we should try to ensure that the ship cruises in the most shark-infested waters we can find.... dump some chum or whatever best tempts sharks to visit, and then 'allow' the terrorists to fall, a few at a time, into the deadly waters..... problem solved!

"Guantanamo Bay is an international embarrassment to our nation, to our ideals, and it remains a festering threat to our security," Leahy said.

Substitute the following words "Guantanamo Bay", "it", and replace with "Leahy".

Military trial for the Gitmo illegal combattants? F*** yes.
Sooner rather than later. And televised executions for the guilty. They deserve no less.

True-believing islamonazis don't fear death so much. They DO however, fear being incarcerated for the rest of their natural lives. In addition, they are more susceptible to interrogation when kept long enough. Gitmo is a smart move that proves the current Administration understands the mind of the enemy. The leftist politicians are once again proving themselves weak on defense and strong on criticizing America.

We should hold them only until they stop disclosing information of value regarding this war against Islam and evil...then, being a civilized people, we should euthanize them with the same care afforded other rapid animals.

God forgive us, but there doesn't seem to be another end to this.

I think they'd start smelling bad after 40-60 years.

And just to be on the safe side, do it in The Bermuda Triangle.
