These Enemy Combatants should be KILLED

They are NOT US Citizens...
They are NOT entitled to due process

As enemy combatants, they are entitled to being tortured, to providing all possible information we deem important, to living as long as we deem necessary

and dieing when we say so

Once again, the Supreme Court will have to remind the Bush administration that we have a Constitution.

This is great. Just because some activist judge and bob53 want to release these killers does not make it right.

This is a Constitutional law issue not a personal opinion.
The Appeals Court issued a temporary stay while arguments are made at this appeals stage, it did not issue an opinion striking down the lower court's decision. The Bush regime would prefer to disregard the legal issues and treat these prisoners with impunity, but that's not how the Constitution works.

Jesus I'm glad you don't speak for America. These types of barbaric and vengeance-driven bloodthirst without a care for justice was dropped by civilized countries after we stopped hanging witches (& don't gimme BS about "they did X" - we're not talking about them and their actions - this is the US and their behavior towards Human Beings).

Every point you made - no due process for non-civilians, justifiable torture for people your country arbitrarily decide to call "enemy combatants"... they are not in line with the US's founding documents, or at least a dozen International and American treaties that your governments have signed in good faith (we thought).

Ignore the Geneva conventions. Return to the idea that torture elicits accurate information. Withdraw into your shells and become 100% xenophobic and hateful of anyone not from "the motherland".

"Never Again"

These are the types of things that the world knew they had to get rid of because after seeing the horrific things that the Nazi's did. You're sliding, America. It's tragic - you're sliding so far back into barbarism. Such a shame. The nation had such great promise. Guess every great endeavor has to rot and fall away in the end.

I can not agree entirely. In war there is always a possibility of prisoners captured on both sides. Interrogation is expected, but not torture, and no enemy prisoners of war should be relased in the United States. However, we should treat theirs as humanely as we would hope they would treat ours. As long as any soldiers are prisoners, they are no longer a danger and causing harm to them is a war crime. There may always be opportunities for prisoner exchanges, prisoners could sometimes be used as a bargaining chip to our advantage, important intelligence may be obtained over a long period of time, and prisoners should be released upon conditions of a treaty of peace. As evidenced in the past, we can not always expect humane treatment of our prisoners by the enemy terrorists, but I think there are good reasons for keeping all prisoners alive and well.

I'm sorry, grandpa. The gulags are back... torture is acceptable legally and morally... Genocide is a useful tool. Nations are terrorizing the weak and the undefended. I'm sorry, grandpa.

Exactly!
And once back in China, the Chinese government will either have them shot, or throw them in prison because, in China, these guys are considered terrorists (imagine that). End of problem!

We don't need them walking the streets of America!

This what happens...

When you reduce the standard of living for the Working People, and create an economy where two incomes are needed to have anything approaching a decent life.

When you have two working parents, or even one working single parent, and the children end up being raised by no one except the media.

When parents have no time to pay close attention to what their children are or are not learning in school.

This ignorance, fear, hatred and malice are the tools by which our corporate overlords get We, the PEOPLE to act against our own best interests.
