So now a Marine has come forward to tell on the gang at Guantanamo. "The name of the sergeant, a female paralegal in a detainee criminal case, was blacked out. The sergeant described an hourlong conversation with guards at a bar at the base on September 23, but the affidavit mentioned only the first names of those accused of taking part in the abuse."
So after the bar conversation, all is fair. Naturally, the tree huggin', got two dolphins in my pocket, liberal lawyers foam at the mouth on this one. Wells Dixon, a lawyer representing four current Guantanamo detainees, said the latest account of abuse reflected a complete breakdown in the chain of command at Guantanamo and a lack of accountability by senior military officials there.
"The fact that members of the U.S. Navy can sit around at a bar and laugh about beating detainees for no reason is outrageous. We're one step away from Abu Ghraib (Iraq prison abuse scandal) or possibly worse," Dixon said.
Can you believe this crap. Here is my favorite part, this is considered cruel and unusual punishment for people who kill with no remorse. "A guard named Steven said that even when the conduct of detainees was good, guards would take away personal items. "He said they do this to anger the detainees so they can punish them when they object or complain," she stated."
See, they need all the legal help they can get. We are taking away their stuff. That's just not fair, you can't take stuff away from them just to teach them a lesson, heck, the next thing you know we will be grounding them from television. I wonder if the soldiers and civilians could all leave Guantanamo on Monday for Columbus day, then the Koreans could test their nukes there...that's mean isn't it. I think I have a psychological problem...
