USA downsizing guanatamo
 

The U.S. holds about 360 men at Guantanamo on suspicion of terrorism or links to al-Qaida or the Taliban. Of that group, military officials say they expect to identify about another 70 who can be transferred or released. But they are likely to face the same hurdles.

The U.S. says it cannot release the rest: About 80 are expected to be tried for war crimes before military tribunals. Some 130 others are considered Islamic extremists who are too dangerous to release. However, there are no plans to prosecute them.

-------------------------------

130 of them are so dangerous they will keep them forever , so dangerous infact they cant find a single crime to charge them with nor do they plan on charging them .

The least they could have done is "invent" some crimes to charge them with ..

wtf kind of "free" country keeps people in jail for life with no charges. ? better yet do ANY countries do this besides usa ?

No, USA is the only country which can and does do this. The world is powerless to stop them.

THen they complain about other nations " civil-rights " issues ... :1orglaugh

Guantánamo man's family release 'torture' dossier


· Relatives of UK resident publicise allegations
· Family of Libyan national release detailed dossier

A British resident held by the US as an alleged terrorist has claimed his captors repeatedly tortured him, subjecting him to beatings, sexual abuse and threats of execution.

Omar Deghayes, 37, is one of five British residents who the United Kingdom government last week asked the US to release from Guantanámo Bay, after years of refusing to help them because they were not UK citizens.

Yesterday the family of Mr Deghayes decided to release a detailed dossier of alleged torture which the former law student dictated to a lawyer who visited him in the Cuban internment camp.

He is a Libyan national whose family fled to the UK after their trade unionist father was murdered by the Gadafy regime in 1980.

Mr Deghayes was captured in Pakistan - his family claim by bounty hunters - after the US attacked Afghanistan. They say he had gone there to start a business exporting dried fruit to a leading supermarket.

In the dossier, he claims to have seen US guards kill people, witnessed prisoners being partially drowned, and saw the Qur'an thrown into a toilet by a US guard.

Then, they wonder why 9/11 ....

they have children at guantanamo. yet were not even allowed to know what they have been charged with or why they are being held..

well, since there are at least 4 FBI agents monitoring this thread I have a question for them:

hi guys, can you really be trained to beat the polygraph???

Good, they are there for a fucking reason, you don't just end up there by accident.

Stop feeling sorry for those fucks, there's lots of shit you don't know and things that arn't public.

I hope they rot there

That's why they're not in the USA but in gitmo.

Article I, Section 9 of the U.S. Constitution:

"The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."





I wasn't aware that there was a rebellion or invasion going on. :(

We still have 130 or so more prisoners to go, imho.
