Meanwhile, the world will judge that we are resolute in waging this war. I can only image the chilling effect the prospect of spending the rest of one's existence in this kind of incarceration. To the Islamist's mind this must be a terror far worse than martyrdom.

There was a story the other day mentioning that Iraqis being questioned were fearful of being sent to Gitmo, and were responsive when it was mentioned by interrogators.

Kind of like the old "We can talk about this down at the station..."

In that sense, I suspect that a lot of the nonsense leftist rhetoric relating to how "brutal" or "inhumane" the Gitmo camp is has caught on with our enemies. So maybe the whining liberals are doing us a favor there. I have little doubt that the captured Fedayeen believe that Gitmo is 100x worse than it really is. So much the better.
