France Floating Proposal for Europe to Take Some Guantanamo Detainees
"France is pushing for European Union countries to take 60 of the detainees deemed innocent" Of course. They don't want the bad guys there. Only the ones that are innocent. |

At least they are willing to step up. That's more than I can say for the rest of the loudmouths. (and of course, they're ALL innocent. Just like every prisoner in every jail that's ever been.)

HOLY CARP!!!

Now, now George. It's a start... Give Malaysia back their 2, give France the 60 they want. Anybody else steps to the plate, super. The rest, pile them into a C130, fly it over the Iraqi desert at 30,000 ft, push 'em out one by one sans parachute. If they survive the fall... THEY'RE FREE! (EDIT: My bad... did I say 30,000 ft? I meant 15,000 ft. Wouldn't want them to pass out due to lack of oxygen.) |

Identifying narcissists isn't difficult. Just look for the person who is constantly fishing for compliments and admiration while breaking down over even the slightest bit of criticism. We have the freedom to choose our actions, but we do not get to choose our consequences. | |

Canada will probably take back it's one terrorist- Omar Khadr. Regardless of how I feel about him and his family, it is the right thing to do. |

This might seem like a hopelessly naive question, but if they're deemed innocent why is the US detaining them? |

Two possibilities you choose closest to the truth: 1) they are likely to be publically drawn and quartered if they are sent back to country of citizenship. 2) they stand to profit by either selling their stories or writing thier memoirs. |

And thereby turning Gitmo into a really great reality TV venue - That's the American Dream, right there! |
