The ACLU must have missed the Nick Berg beheading along with the rest of the hostages the islamderthal scum murdered while holding them.
The ACLU is flinging their anti American crap again. Will be in the Arab news soon.
Who says the Cold War is over?
The AP -- should have known -- and I wonder how that number compares to the homocides of Saddam and his executioners while they had people in custody? 200,000? 400,000?
Maybe the Anti-American Communist Lawyers Union cares to address that data??
ACLU Ping
Indeed they should. They should be held accountable for the fact there are Tony Romeros running around inside the US that are sympathetic to those with hostile intentions. Bunch of judges and legislators should have been disked under by now too.
IMO, of course.
The ACLU continues to prove itself the organization most likely to uphold the false premise that the Constitution is, indeed, a suicide pact.
Were they ACLU lawyers?
War is hell.
That's why its best not to go starting one and having to pay the piper.
I was going to say 21 out of a total of how many? I wonder what our average is?
Now what was the total count on people snatched by the Peaceful Followers of OBL and his minions? What is the % of people chopped, shot, ransomed and just let go.
The minions do seem to have come up with a novel way to handle defense lawyers.
They were all probably destined to be suicide bombers anyway, we just altered the course a little.
Only 21?
Our guys need to get tougher.
How does the ACLU find time to check on the deaths of prisoners. Dont they have all they can handle trying to outlaw God from America?
At least 21 detainees who died while being held in U.S. custody in Iraq and Afghanistan were killed
What do deaths in Afghanistan and Iraq, have to do with the ACLU..?
The reason this war is like Vietnam is; trying to win hearts and minds, instead of decimating the enemy wherever he may be.
WE ARE BETTER THAN THEY ARE.
Sorry to shout, but the argument above keeps coming up. Under absolutely no circumstances should the behavior of terrorists be a benchmark for our behavior. Bad behavior cannot be excused because worse behavior exists.
If it is true that people in US custody have been mistreated. then the people who did it must be identified and punished. We don't condone misdeeds; they do. We don't get off on sadistic acts of torture; they do. We are better than they are. It's up to us to prove it.
You don't conquer evil by emulating it. Not ever, not even a little bit.
