Anti-GITMO folks: Are you outraged at this obvious violation of the Geneva Convention?

That was sarcasm with which wider scope spoke.

Biting and true. "No, the Taliban is made up of freedom fighting terrorists and as such, are free from the normal constraints of government, perfectly justified in fighting freedom using whatever means they choose. I don't understand why you don't understand the inherent romance contained within that statement. Liberals have no problem grasping it."

The Geneva Conventions apply to signatories. But terrorists are neither bound by nor does any signatory have to respect the conventions against those Jihadis who wear no identification, that dress in the clothes of the regular people, and thus are murderous wolves in sheep's clothing. We may by law and good custom be absolutely brutal to such terrorists. We do not show any "refined humanity" to fail to be brutal to those bloody murdering animals anymore than we'd be a good shepherd for failing to beat to death the wolf hiding in the sheep.

A shepherd who shows a wolf even a small mercy does so only with a certainty that more sheep -- and even shepherds -- shall come to be slaughtered by that action.

Bush is a powerful White Christian male who cares approximately doing suitable. no longer so, the Iranians. as a result, utilising the well known Liberal logic, Bush is evil and Iran is a sufferer. I basically found out how this works. damn! Do they actually think of that Iran has carried out no longer something incorrect? isn't taking pictures a non-enemy inherently evil? Oh, suitable. No stable and evil anymore. in basic terms oppressors and sufferers. And Argle, we're not in kindergarten anymore. Get directly to 1st.

It's been long enough. Either try these people or let them go.

Walk in their sandals a way. What if you were taken away from home for seven years with no clear explanation of why. Some of these people just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

If you can't prove that's false, let them go. The Taliban was organized (funded) by the U.S.

Now you want to treat them like animals? And what the hell was Bergdahl doing outside the safe perimeter anyway? Like the cons about the poor, "he got himself into this mess, it's not my problem".

No, the Taliban is made up of freedom fighting terrorists and as such, are free from the normal constraints of government, perfectly justified in fighting freedom using whatever means they choose.

I don't understand why you don't understand the inherent romance contained within that statement. Liberals have no problem grasping it.

The Taliban are not signatories to the Geneva Convention--we are.

What they did was fukt up---what we did systematically for eight years in foreign countries trying to wiggle out of our treaty obligations was worse.

Would you rather be filmed by the enemy, or beaten, sleep deprived, stress positioned, subjected to extremes of heat and cold, burned, electrocuted, and/or waterboarded?

No-brainer, really.

The Taliban didn't take part in the Geneva convention, idiot.

Why do Americans ask such stupid questions?

Not nearly as I am about the violation of the GC when Alexander Blackman (when serving as a Royal Marine in Afghanistan killed a wounded Taliban prisoner)!

The Taliban never signed the Geneva Convention, numbnuts -- unlike us. Is this a real question?

You foolish...foolish person.

As a Liberal, allow me to school you on this subject.

We Americans ARE evil.

We suck.

We are the worst country to ever live on planet Earth.

The Taliban are obviously treating this prisoner well and he volunteered to make this video so he could speak out against the evil that is America.

Once Obama finally institutes Communism in America, we will finally be on our way to making up for all we've done wrong to the World.

Let's send Eric Holder over there to set them straight on how prisioners should be treated.
