Guantanamo Torture

The Red Cross issued a report saying that the US military is using psychological and sometimes physical torture (tactics tantamount to torture) on Guantanamo Bay inhabitants.

I think that these people have been in that hellhole, that stain on American pride, that Ghastly Ghulag long enough!

ICRC report

How can we call ourselves the land of liberty or the land of freedom or the home of the brave and treat other human beings this way?

It has been three years since these people were captured and they should be tried, convicted, and sentenced or let go. I am beginning to suspect that they aren't getting trials because it would expose their unimportance and/or it would expose our awful treatment of them.

Where are the moral leaders of America? Where are the courts? Where is the press? Where are the Democrats? Where is Elizabeth Dole?

Do we deserve the title of "land of the free and home of the brave" if we are afraid to offer fair trials for these people?
