    Default American Lawyers now invading Gitmo ...

    It looks like the recent US court rulings have opened Pandora's box in regard to Gitmo ...

    Yup, if I remember my history right, Teddy Roosevelt had an entirely different idea of how to deal with persons on Cuban soil who tried to kill American soldiers !

    first, I'm not familiar with what you suggest...can you provide links>

    Second, just because it's been done, does that make it right?

    We're claiming to be liberators, claiming to demonstrate the "American Way" of justice, truth, and all that - but when it's convenient we toss out our laws and ethics to get the job done....just as these terrorists toss out the religious teachings of Islam to acheive their goal
