What Obama says is rhetoric. His rule of law versus terrorist is going to be a losing battle for us. These people arent US citizens and dont fit under our civil criminal laws obviously to all except to the ACLU and other wackos. Our soldiers dont exactly have time to stop and read them their Miranda rights when we capture them.
The truth is that they should have held them in Iraq or wherever else they found them and disposed of them or if of no use released them there. Lots of bad things happen in the world and like it or not the rest of the world doesn't fall under our constitution laws. Maybe you think that I am nuts but wars, terrorism and espionage are a dirty business and no one is going to come out of it without blood on their hands including us. These aren't issues that will ever be nicely resolved in the publics eyes, Guantanamo or not.
