Mr. Roberts above makes the correct, succinct point that we treat them better because we are better. As a Christain and as an American, I think I feel representative of most by being frustrated for obeying rules of civilization and humanity when we are dealing with a class that respects neither. This may seem radical, but we need to re-examine the Geneva Convention rules to allow for the new globalization reality in which we find ourselves. The days of facing a massed, uniform force of divisions and classical military organizations may be behind us for the forseeable future. What we will face in this conflict is loosely organized, but lethal combatants with no clear sovereign, but a distinct and clear goal of evil and destruction.

We treat them better because we are better. Any group that shows such ill regard for human life…wait I can say this about the pro-choicer’s too can’t I…is inherently inferior.

Of course, our lib pro-choice friends think that if we leave them alone, they will leave us alone. How little do they pay attention to the havoc being wrecked by Islamofacists across Europe. If we are as tolerant, worse will happen here. How little do people realize that this IS a war between cultures. Our opponent seeks to destroy our culture and nation as soon as possible.

Or Ann Coulter and Alan Colmes debates?

Would this be considered torture? 24/7 playing of mind-numbingly inane Noam Chomsky speeches.

Nah, Bak, he makes himself look silly.
However, I do give props for the milk an cookies joke. This may be the first intentionally funny thing I’ve seen to date

How is it possible to “abuse” a mere book the enemy uses as his inspiration and permission for killing you?

There are only TWO religious books US Soldiers should be concerned with protecting and those are the Torah and the Bible. The basis for OUR Judeo-Christian founding principles.

Anything else is just a book.

‘Nuff said,

“Pakistanis freed from Guantanamo Bay claimed Monday they saw American interrogators throw, tear and stand on copies of Islam’s holy book, and one former detainee said naked women sat on prisoners’ chests during questioning.

The Pentagon denied the accusations and said al-Qaida training manuals instruct prisoners to make such false charges.

The men acknowledged they were aware of the international furor caused by previous reports about Quran desecrations. Such reports triggered protests across the Islamic world and deadly riots in Afghanistan last month.” http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050627/ap_on_re_as/pakistan_guantanamo

Actus, I’m sure there has been 100 times worse written from keyboards that were typed on by victims of criminals.

But I believe Lt. Col. Gordon Cucullu makes you look silly.

Mo Gitmo

After taking a “look see” down there, Senators agree the place needs to stay open….and Rummy rejects the idea of a “commission” to investigate the place. Uncorrelated has “proof of abuse” at Gitmo…just not the type you may be thinking…more…

“Actus would prefer starting a milk and cookies drive for the detainees at Gitmo.”

Our keyboards will flow with milk and cookies for the infidels!

Actus would prefer starting a milk and cookies drive for the detainees at Gitmo. He is asking all peace-loving “American” citizens to send cookies, dounuts, stuffed animals (preferably with knives and files inside) and Barrystafah Manilowhommed CDs to calm the fears of these poor, lonely men so far away from home.
