Radical cleric Abu Hamza al-Masri sentenced to life in prison

Ask him how many children he is willing to murder to prevent a terrorist attack!

Oh cut it out. You know the extremists begin to teach their young how to hold and fire weapons, and who their enemies are, which is America.

 
Yeah, I'm sure they were just in the wrong place at the wrong time. :roll: I know libs always claim that, I really don't place much credence in what libs claim.

If you were inclined to educate yourself you can check.
 
Where should I start, Daily POS, or Huffpo? :roll:

Here ya go.

They also include information on the first 201 prisoners released from the prison, between 2002 and 2004, which, unlike information on the rest of the prisoners (summaries of evidence and tribunal transcripts, released as the result of a lawsuit filed by media groups in 2006), has never been made public before. Most of these documents reveal accounts of incompetence familiar to those who have studied Guantánamo closely, with innocent men detained by mistake (or because the US was offering substantial bounties to its allies for al-Qaeda or Taliban suspects), and numerous insignificant Taliban conscripts from Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Beyond these previously unknown cases, the documents also reveal stories of the 399 other prisoners released from September 2004 to the present day, and of the seven men who have died at the prison.

The memos are signed by the commander of Guantánamo at the time, and describe whether the prisoners in question are regarded as low, medium or high risk. Although they were obviously not conclusive in and of themselves, as final decisions about the disposition of prisoners were taken at a higher level, they represent not only the opinions of JTF-GTMO, but also the Criminal Investigation Task Force, created by the Department of Defense to conduct interrogations in the "War on Terror," and the BSCTs, the behavioral science teams consisting of psychologists who had a major say in the "exploitation" of prisoners in interrogation.

Half of the Prisoners at Gitmo Have Been Cleared for Release - Defense One
The administration has already cleared 78 of the 149 remaining prisoners for transfer. Having never been charged with a crime, these detainees have since been deemed to pose no national security threat by defense and intelligence officials and could be set for departure at any time.

Under the law, the administration can continue releasing those who have been cleared to their home countries, or to other host nations if releasing them to their own country could be dangerous and result in persecution. Obama has released 89 prisoners during his tenure.
 
In your avatar, you bring it up in every post. :mrgreen:

How does it feel to have a left leaning person agree with you? You ain't having any of it, are you?
 
That wasn't your only error.

You don't believe that radicals teach their children how to hate Americans?

You don't believe it's a bad idea to put a convicted terrorist into the general population with other prisoners?

Tell us what you'd like to see happen with convicted terrorists? Give them chocolate chip cookies and milk forever? Maybe a goose down mattress with nice soft blankets? You want to coddle convicted terrorists? Tell us please.

Doesn't bother me in the least. I agree on things with a number of lefties. I celebrate it. I just don't suffer being lectured on my "partisan hacksmanship" by partisan hacks. :)
