Aside from the little detail that this would be against international law (not that that has stopped us in the recent past), and that our actions can be used to support or curtail terrorist recruitment, your idea suggests that any person locked up for a length of time will be more dangerous in the future and therefore should stay in prison forever. Yes, simple logic does suggest that's possible, doesn't it? Obviously some people are more likely to fall under this than others, e.g. people who have been locked up for years with nothing to read but a Koran.

My beef is that WaPo didn't even glance at this blatantly obvious issue suggested by their own subtitle.
