Some Guantanamo prisoners could be released in U.S.




By James Vicini– Wed Mar 18, 5:03 pm ET AP
 
(Reuters) – Some of the Guantanamo Bay prisoners could be released into the United States while others could be put on trial in the American court system, Attorney General Eric Holder said on Wednesday.

Holder, who was chosen by President Barack Obama to lead the administration's efforts to close the U.S. military prison at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba within a year, said the review of what to do with each of the prisoners had begun.

About 240 terrorism suspects, including suspected planners of the September 11 attacks, are being held in the prison. Many have been detained for seven years without charges and some were subjected to interrogation techniques denounced by critics as torture...

They will probably be treated to a state dinner with their comrade in the White House.

No limit, no season closing, and you can 1--shoot them from your car, 2--use a baited field.

Oh, no size limit either.

I think a "counting coup"-like action would be appropriate.  Wipe the dying terrorist with a slice of ham, for example.

Hm, the only reason for releasing any of those prisoners here would be that their own countries do not want them back.  Maybe there is a reason for them being locked up.
