maw said:How silly. Goes back to that Stones song - Every Cop a Criminal, Every Sinner a Saint. This is pretty much a liberal, anti-US position when it comes to Gitmo, detainees, and handling captured violent unlawful combatants. Luckily, it's more like the whine of an annoying mosquito, and not really being taken seriously.
“Should any American soldier be so base and infamous as to injure any [prisoner]. . . I do most earnestly enjoin you to bring him to such severe and exemplary punishment as the enormity of the crime may require. Should it extend to death itself, it will not be disproportional to its guilt at such a time and in such a cause… for by such conduct they bring shame, disgrace and ruin to themselves and their country.” - George Washington, charge to the Northern Expeditionary Force, Sept. 14, 1775
Wow, George Washington... What a whiny liberal *****. How anti-US.
