Basically. If they escape, they'll get help because all the Muslims in the US are terrorist lovers.

Also, apparently guys from Iraq and Afghanistan memorize the locations of all the mosques in America, together with ways to get there covertly from nearby prisons, just in case.

It's part of their training

The thing is about 20% have rejoined the fight but that's rather astonishingly low. That means 80% either gave up or much more likely were never terrorists to begin with.



You need to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that every single 'show trial' they're having that you referenced is a waste of time. That is, you need to tell us how you know -- with all of the many elements at your disposal as an uneducated redneck -- why these people are doubtlessly guilty.

What a stupid argument. People are calling the NYC trials "show-trials" because the accused won't be released even if they're found innocent. They aren't fair trials.

[Soresbox]

Don't forget that the Administration is only bringing to civilian trial those accused terrorists that it is confident it can convict. Those accused terrorists with weaker cases against them are going to remain in the military commission system. That's some triumph for fairness and the rule of law...

It is about 100 miles north of Detroit (and Dearborn).

Way too close. Let's stick them in Yucca Mountain; we need to use that complex for something.

Basically. If they escape, they'll get help because all the Muslims in the US are terrorist lovers. Where did I say 'all' muslims? Abdullah Abdullah is helping him.

All I am arguing is that some of the Muslims in America are terrorist supporters, and that a significant number of those who are live in Dearborn.

That means 80% either gave up or much more likely were never terrorists to begin with. Or it could mean that they bought the farm. It could mean that they still are engaged in terrorism but they haven't been caught again. Lots of possibilities.

just had the ill luck to be foreigners in Afghanistan at a time when the US was offering a $10,000 bounty on foreigners in Afghanistan. To a goat herder living on $1 a day ten grand is a fortune so they swept up anyone and everyone they could and there were many cases of people turning in people they didn't like but who were innocent just to get the money. Oh really? That bounty was on Jihadis. Say you aren't an Afghani. You wander around in Afghanistan as a Tourist carting around your AK-47, and beating up on the locals. You might just be a Jihadi...

[JohnfAclambrJA]

Wow. Who could possibly argue with that air-tight reasoning?

[juptVatoSoito]

DF wouldn't recognize sarcasm if it smacked him in the face.

You know what I love about liberals? They assume that everyone plays by the same rules. Sorry, but they don't. When we're dealing with terrorists, who we arrested overseas or in the process of planning terror attacks domestically, I think we can safely assume they aren't Carebears. That being the case, **** 'em. Lock 'em up and throw away the key, or better yet, just kill them. The concerns about punishing the innocent are kinda stupid, in the same sense that many "innocent" people in prison currently could have avoided prison by keeping better company. In other words, if you're not a thug/drug dealer/murderer/etc., but you hang out with those who do those things, don't be shocked or offended if you wind up "wrongfully" convicted. Yeah, it might not be strictly fair, but you could have avoided it.

Same for innocents stuck in Gitmo. Maybe if you'd vociferously denounced radical Islam and terrorism earlier in life, not provided any sort of aid and comfort to militants, and generally avoided anyone involved in terrorism, odds are you wouldn't be in Gitmo.

Personally, I think it's interesting that since 9/11, there hasn't been a successful terrorist attack on American soil, so, in the immortal words of Colonel Nathan R. Jessup, USMC, I would rather you just said "thank you", and went on your way.

I think liberals better recognize that there is internal conflict in muslim countries. Not all the people there support the terrorists. But thanx to guys like you and George W. Bush the terrorists now have more sympathy.

[WertyNtont]

I'm embarrassed to be a Republican in Illinois these days.

The repugs are trying to fight the move of them to the facility in Illinois by claiming that it will make the state a target for terrorism. HUH

It's just embarrassing.

It's bad enough that the party hasn't offered any solutions at all, but just opposes anything the Dems propose in an attempt to make them look bad. The grand ole party looks pretty sad.

[DarrenBent]

I rest my case.

I'm just so embarrassed.

[KinicsBonee]

Silly Drake, don't you realise that solutions are for Democrats?

[Grennios]

So you're shocked and appalled that the opposition is opposing the agenda of the majority. You're a real genius...

[Justlovemy]

Which part of his ageneda do you think they've been overly aggressive in opposing?

[illiderob]

The GOP doesn't even have enough votes to go overboard in their opposition; they can't obstruct **** unless they get some Dems to help them. rah is just being a dipshit...

[RCQDnMp5]

My comment was more a general complaint about the my political party since the election. They've become the obstructionists. Granted that is not that abnormal for the minority party but they've really taken it to an extreme that I'm not happy with.

If only they were successful at obstruction.
