Why Guantanamo is more wrong than right.

Because it fails.

Case in point:

From Dick Morris - "Calling him a "senior Taliban commander," The New York Times reported on Wednesday that Abdullah Mehsud blew himself up at his hide-out in the town of Zhob in southwestern Baluchistan Province in Pakistan, rather than surrender to government forces.

But what was he doing commanding Taliban troops in the first place? Mehsud had been captured by American forces in northern Afghanistan in December 2001 and sent to the Guantanamo Detention Center."


In reality, a proper legal proceeding would allow us to keep a prisoner of war until the war is over....

Of course, if we implant them with GPS tags....
