I would have less of a problem with the torture if they had each had a fair trial and had been found guilty. If people elect to live their lives in a criminal fashion, then I have no sympathy for the fate that awaits them (when they are found guilty). As it is, the one defining thing about all the prisoners of Gitmo (both current and released) is that they have not had a chance to confront their accusers (apart from the one American prisoner, who had his day in court relatively promptly....). The US government is acting exactly like the terrorists it condems i.e. Kidnapping people and torturing them.Originally Posted by FunkyDexter
Yeah, come on. You really should give 'em a trial before you torture 'em. Fair's fair.
As it is, holding people without trial is plain and simple wrong. Torturing those same people is disgusting.
