In the veiws of liberla lawayers, the reason it’s better than Gitmo is that once they are on US soil, it gives these prisoners US legal rights and access to our our legal system. Heck, maybe they can even become US citizens and sue us big time, if they are not too busy watching Oprah (sarc)
I believe those falsely imprisoned people of peace already were given all of those rights and accesses. Actually after their pardons, they will become commanders in the soon-to-be-formed national civilian security force.
