Well guys there it is. Feeding inmates is now torture according to the fine people at the UN, and probably the MSM and the democratic party, as well.
I think the detainees in Gitmo should be tortured. They are terrorists for God's sake! They don't even blink their eyes when they blow up hundreds of innocent children! Why should they be treated like human beings? I simply don't get it.
The MSM screams about a Qoran book being kicked by U.S soldiers, but they didn't shed a single tear for the Beslan Kids, for the 3000 lives of 9/11, Van Gogh, women stoned to death........
Fine.
We'll close down and send them back to their country of origin: Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt...
No Torture There!!
I think we ought to close Gitmo too. After we shoot all the detainees.
Yet the UN makes no mention of the real torture at Holguin Prison.
Hey UN. Clean up your own back yard first. Remmber that UN sex scandal in the Congo? We do. STFU.
This article packs it all: Arab anger (oh no!!!), the UN..... I have to say
Who gives a rat's rear????
"We didn't do nuthin', man!"
Hey! Sounds like credible testimony to me!
I allege corruption at the UN.
Since the European nations think that the detainees should be released, send the prisoners by cargo planes to Europe and turn them loose there.
The Un has to take the pressure off themselves , so they make a BS attack on Gitmo.
Move on , Nothing to see here.
How could the UN make a ruling on that? As I recall, they've never been allowed to set foot in Gitmo, so their reports couldn't be based on anything more than hearsay.
And the timing of the media-release of additional Abu Grahib prison fotos is just a coincidence too! Like not.
"Adding to pressure on Washington, the European Parliament was expected to back a call later on Thursday for Guantanamo to be closed and all prisoners to be treated in full accordance with international humanitarian law. The resolution, which reaffirms a commitment to fighting terrorism, is backed by all major political groups within the European legislature."
Not to mention that it is a "Muslim appropriate" diet that we have to offer them as well as a totally "Muslim" way of life. It is our soldeirs who can't murmer anything about their religion.
The five U.N. investigators, who include Manfred Nowak, special rapporteur on torture, and Leila Zerrougui, chairperson of the U.N. Working Group on Arbitrary Detention, said the findings were based on interviews with past detainees, lawyers and replies to questions put to the U.S. government.
How is that for thorough & impartial investigating?
"Not allowed"..actually the UN declined the visit...
