Bin Laden, Gitmo, International Law

[MARIS61]

it alllll depends on who is in office at the time. People have selective memory, especially when its about someone they admire. Lots of people love FDR and say he's one of the best Presidents ever... remind me of how many Presidents in the history of the United States have had internment camps set up under their watch to hold American citizens? Not too many.

2 in my lifetime, Bush and Obama.

But they're just following orders.

Which American citizens were held at internment camps under Bush or Obama?

I am against Gitmo AND the killing of Osama. He should have been captured and put on trial for the world to see. There's nothing he could say that he hadn't already said and published. He represented a lot of very difficult but important ideas to Western society. It would have been nice to have some of those ideas on the table so we could explore and move forward. .

He attacked America. He admitted it and proclaimed he would attack again. At that point he should be killed, not captured.

I'm not a measured response kind of guy. Either run away or destroy the threat, depending on your capability or frame of mind.

And fuck his "ideas". They are of no interest to me. Just another rich, spoiled brat that grew up to be an asshole with a god complex.

How would we know, given that (according to some of you) we can't believe anything the government says?

Where did I say that, barfo? I assume you were addressing me in your latest evasive post.
