Jack Straw is to international diplomacy what Jack Kevorkian is to life saving measures for the terminally ill.

Who cares what this Straw man thinks? Gitmo serves our purposes because it is outside of virtually all legal wrangling, manuvering, etc. It can't be a "gulag" anyway cause the prisoners don't "work". They are basically pampered if they behave.

I'll bet Srtaw has no idea as to what goes on in a Soviet-style gulag.

I'm constantly amazed at the selfrighteousness of people who undermine the Genenva conventions by presuming to assign its protections to people who systematically reject all of its obligations.

The upshot of their moral preening is to heap obloquy on the victims of systematic violation of the conventions.

This, from a country which once shipped its inmates off to a little island in the Pacific known as "Australia."

Is Jack Straw asking that we turn Gitmo into a Soviet type gulag, or what?

That could be done, of course.

Perhaps Mr Straw should ask Mr Solzhenitsyn if he thinks they are comparable.

Correction: it should be "Jack Ass" not "Jack Straw".

How is he risking American fury when we don't care one bit what he thinks about Guantanamo?
