Good stories and I see the point you’re making....
but....
...the point I’m making is not about the legitimacy of our response in the eyes of the world or in the eyes of Socialist Rats, it’s about removing the prosecution of the war (against these Muslim terrorists) from the grasp of the ACLU.
that’s the legacy we’re dealing with now, even with events this very day, today.
Frankly I believe all Gitmo “detainees” should be shot or hung under military law. They should have been years ago, after they’d been waterboarded for information.
It's not like they should be allowed to get away with this.
