Thread Name: GUANTANAMO BAY
Subject: RE: GUANTANAMO BAY
no systemic abuse at Guantanamo?....just torture, right? After all it's not like these are real human beings....they're......my gawd....terrorists!

Why in God's name would any civilized nation on earth not want to adhere to the Geneva Convention regarding prisoners for which they are responsible?....Disgusting!!!!! The US has openly become as despicable regarding human rights as some south and central American countries.....and don't you just love it!!....they are still scrambling to somehow find a legal loophole for self justification.

No damned inconvenient, bleedingheart little pissant international treaties and laws that we've signed apply to us. We're Americans and we're above the law. Guess when you're drunk, whether it's power or alcohol makes little difference.
