Tsk tsk. What a pity.

*checks watch*
*twiddles thumbs*
Are they dead yet? What's taking so long? Can we speed up the process somehow? =P

[BigCinBigD]

Then let them die and decrease the surplus population.

[konaice]

So who cares? They are TERRORISTS.

Stupid time to start a hunger strike, when the MSM is busy wringing hands over Katrina.

Clueless bunch down there hub?

"Hunger strikers pledge to die in Guantánamo"

Ya mean they are gonna boycott the 1st Annual Club Gitmo Terrorist Septemberfest pig roast? Thats too bad.

[kublia khan]

I am appalled, I just don't know if we are prepared to handle a crisis of this magnitude, Do we have enough body bags.

[rogue yam]

I've said it before, but I'll say it again:

Dude, if you're not gonna eat those Froot Loops...

[coconutt2000]

I doubt any of these men have the conviction necessary to die a slow death for their religion.

[GeronL]

five weeks?? and their still alive?? a miracle of Jehovah I am sure.

[GSlob]

Wasting any more food on them would be unconscious.

[drlevy88]

Are they even aware of Katrina? Probably not.

[GeronL]

unconscious and probably not even awake even.

don't we feed them something like nuts and dates or something??

[dennisw]

let 'em rot

[Avenger]

"More than 200 detainees in Guantánamo Bay are in their fifth week of a hunger strike, the Guardian has been told."

The terrorists have been going without food for 5 weeks but we are told by anti-American leftist nutcases that people in New Orleans were forced to eat corpses after only 4 days without food. Seems to me that either said anti-American leftist nutcases are making stuff up or we have spoiled our poor by overfeeding them. Almost certainly the former, but one has to admit that we do have some of the fatest poor people of any nation on Earth.

[DesertSapper]

Hey, they've always wanted to die for their moon-god . . .

I say we don't interfere with their religious observance as that could be seen as disrespectful.

Are these murderous demon-spawn dead yet? Hurry up already!

[Mad Dawg]

Buh Bye.

[Mad Dawg]

Buh Bye.

[Jackknife]

That would be such a shame.[/sarcasm]

[Jemian]

Make water available to them but they shouldn't be forced to eat or drink. If they chose to die, let them die.

[rlmorel]

Good. The bastards deserve a slow death by starvation. Best that they do it to themselves.
