→Guantanamo Bay releasees
We deal here, if I may so observe, with two competing probabilities with distinctly different levels of cost. One is having somebody languish in prison for a few years. The other is to have a million Americans dead. Which would you rather?--[[User:TerryH|TerryH]]<sup>[[User talk:TerryH|Talk]]</sup> 19:27, 14 June 2008 (EDT)

Terry, if you dont know who David Hicks even is how can you through around accusations that everyone from Gitmo has turned out back on the battlefield? David Hicks WAS a prisoner and David Hicks WAS released. You seem to have little knowledge on the subject so don't insult those who do know.

:::: Terry - it is you who have made an unsubstantiated assertion, not I. Again I ask you for proof of your assertion. I note you have found it impossible to come by. It is easier to prove my case, much easier. Try [http://books.guardian.co.uk/extracts/story/0,,2275535,00.html Murat Kurnaz], for example, living in Germany since his release. David Hicks is alive and well in Australia. There are countless numbers of them who have '''not''' returned to combat Terry, and while I am certainly not denying that ''some'' have returned to combat, your claim that "to a man, every one of them" has done so is obviously completely incorrect. The [http://www.state.gov/g/drl/rls/45738.htm Dept. of State's official report] clearly says that "some detainees upon their release are returning to combat" (search for the phrase, no way to provide a hard link) - I imagine that if they could have made your claim, they would have been much happier, but they couldn't, so they didn't. Because it's not true.
