Senators McCain & Graham on what to do with Gitmo

At the end of the WWII all members of the Gestapo, SS and other members of that killing machine had one general excuse and said unisolo: "we were only following orders or the laws"! We still hanged several hundred of them, so did the Russians.
Presidents Obama´s decision not to prosecute those who provided the legal ground for all those hideous crimes commited by the CIA or our Armed Forces, "because they were following the given orders of the time", is inexcusable!! So did the Nazis!!
We should investigate and punish those who acted against the laws of a democracy and humanity. The world is watching and we may lose again all the respect if we do not follow up on the promise Mr. Obama repeatedly said: we will close all torture camps, release or charge the occupants in a civil court where our laws will be obeyed and punish those who put themselves above the law.

McCain back at whatever the President does it is wrong, how typical of him. Looking back to whatever happened on Bush's watch is only wrong if it serves the Republican party but if the President refers to the past 8 years , he is slander for it. Anyone who participated in war crimes or gave orders should be punished. The Republicans are just defending Bush and Chaney. If we were attacked on Obama's watch could you imagine the field day Republicans would have and if President Obama called for torture , he would be burned at the stake by Republicans but because it was the Bush era , the Republicans do not want anyone accountable for torture.

If you have evidence then put them on trial, whether in the regular federal courts,a special terrorism court or courts martial. If you have evidence that can't be produced for some reason or was obtained through nasty methods, then it's just the same as having no evidnce at all. Not even military courts can accept evidence that can't be produced in court.

Overall, they would have probably done better just to classify most of these as POWs than to keep letting this situtaion fester year after year. I think some of those Bush era folks have left these things so tied up in legal knots that are impossible to untangle.

And a defense lawyer worth anything can easily get evidence thrown out if it was produced under coercion, and it's impossible to have a real trial without a defense. Even the Nazis at Nuremberg had that right, so where does that leave us?

Well, O'Reilly pointed out that as enemies of the State, they could be shot. Cheney has problems with closing GITMO due to a probable Contract that Halliburton has with the Base and the Interrogation Team that managed to drown 16 of them could continue to waterboard them. Personally, I like the "Persona not Grata" label and drop them off over Afghanistan somewhere and post their faces on every web site in the Freeworld....Either try them or deport them!

Are you for real? How should we handle those who cannot be tried, you ask! If they can't be tried, why are we holding them? If these people are guilty, why haven't they been prosecuted, sentenced, and jailed? Some may be guilty but a veil of doubt surrounds Gitmo because of the disgraceful actions of the Bush administration.
