#1 requires the tin-foil hat.
#2 does make sense. This could be it.

Perhaps Obama wants them released (and use the uproar at home as an excuse). I have heard that the shites are killing the sunnies in the Levant, so fresh sunni fighters from Gitmo might be considered a much needed reinforcement.

I’d rather be an inmate there than a guard. The guards’ lives suck.

LOL!!

You have one of those ‘thingys’ you can loan me. I don’t have one as of yet.

You do now know of the ‘prison islamic conversions’?

Just one headline

“U.S. Prisons Churning Out Thousands Of Radicalized Inmates”

If you search google there are “About 461,000 results (0.45 seconds)”

It was a theory but maybe a ‘tin-foil’ one but a theory.

You asked “Why” just again my ‘tin-foil’ theory. Over there the only interaction is with other ‘islamates’, here they would have access to many unconverted.

Your opinion............my theory. If I am allowed? Thanks.

Take care.........pilgrim

There's a lot of people on FR tonight to get NV caucus news and to discuss the results. If you could lay off the spam for several hours, that would be appreciated.

Thanks

What most people don’t realize is that the conditions of confinement is one of the most extensively litigated subjects in all of criminal/correctional law. Liberal judges have construed the Eighth Amendment prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment in a strict manner against state and federal prison systems and held that incarceration cannot be more confining than necessary to achieve the goal of incapacitation for the protection of self and others. Stated differently, liberty is a fundamental right that triggers strict scrutiny by the courts and requires a compelling governmental interest to infringe. The more complete the incapacitation (as in security housing units), the stricter the scrutiny by the courts to ensure that no excesses are occurring. When the political considerations associated with Muslim enemy combatants are added to the equation, strict scrutiny becomes microscopic examination—which results in what amounts to a life of leisure for the detainees at Guantanamo. Many of the inmates at Guantanamo surely have a higher standard of living there than they had before or would have had otherwise.

More spam....

Not trying to influence you at all, but discussion and cogent thought and argument works wonders.

You're like a stable boy with a bucket of horse shit.

But does any of that apply to enemy combatants?

My answer is NO.

Obama (POS) should feel right at home in Gitmo.

And automatic US citizenship and freebies, courtesy of you and I and their VICTIMS’ FAMILIES. Now wouldn’t THAT be a slap in the face, Obama style.

Instead of being waited on hand and foot, playing soccer, and having their own library they should be imprisoned at hard labor.

Mucking out swamps, breaking up rocks or digging out old landmines 10 hours a day would keep them fit and out of trouble.

Are you sure we’re talking about the same post? What I wrote was in agreement with your post and simply elaborated on it.
