DKTOS, but I like the read...except I think "Gitmo" is only occupied by those picked up in Afghanistan in the first retaliatory military act...which I generally support. However, it still mystifies me why some folks think torture and abuse is a good way to get information, especially from folks who might possibly not have done anything wrong...my older brother is politically right-wing and he doesn't see or have a problem with scooping up people in their own country on scant or little evidence (or the say-so of warlords who might have an axe to gring)...shackling, hooding, drugging and tossing on an airplane to take them to an unknown destination(Gitmo)...where they will be imprisoned without charges or rights indefinitely...or possibly allowed a "Sham" hearing in front of a military tribunal (that will not allow the accused to call witnesses or present evidence - just what the hell type of "hearing" is that?). I hold no brief for any REAL terrorists, outside of believing in humane treatment as a matter of course for ANYBODY held in custody - by anybody and anywhere...I just hope this type of crap never happens to our citizens or the citizens of our allied countries...

Thanks for the support, Paul. I think I may have fudged on the "Iraqi" part. Maybe I should have written "Afghani" in place of it....
