There were no terrorist afte him or his country because they knew what would happen top them if they resisted!
Anyway where did you invent that we were going to slaughter innocents? These prisoners are taken on the modern battlefield of internationa terrorism. No uniforms, no national allegience? Just slimnking around trying to figure out how to kill the innocents for ideological reasons? Citizens rights? What country are these people citizens of? |
I know the drill. If we kill them they must be terrorists. Of course the Red Cross and US personnel agreed that 80% of those in Abu Ghraib had been swept up at random and had no connection to terrorism. But hell, once we kill them, who is to say they aren't guilty?
As I noted before Ghengis Khan's empire collapsed in bloody chaos. Is that barbarism what you want for America?
