This is war..They are the enemies, and they should not be allowed to use U.S. Courts to argue their guilt or innocence That's the problem. It's not war. The president did not request nor did Congress declare war. That leaves us in the same limbo that we experienced in Vietnam - fighting without a declared war. Anyone more knowledgeable say yea or nay?

When this ‘problem’ popped up in the early going, my solution to the ‘American Taliban’(John Lindt??) was to turn him over to the Northern Alliance.....after all he probably DIDN’T fight against us, at least that was his claim, but I think organizations that he ADMITTEDLY was firing upon would have a means to handle the problem for us. If the detainees don’t like the conditions at Gitmo, let them go back to an Iraqi tribunal and face the charges of bombing civilians etc...
I am sure they will be given fair and just treatment—surely not the brutality they are facing while being detained by us (sarc)
