Americans are the war criminal for allowing this to happen and for doing nothing to prevent it. Americans think nothing of the atrocities their government has committed in Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and Iraq over the past six years or so. That’s not the case for people affected by these atrocities.

Just because an Afghani is deemed a “radical” by the U.S. or McClatchy, doesn’t mean this person is not an aggrieved party any less deserving of fair treatment.

I’m still waiting for the fairness to enter into the sphere of the White House, where arrests and trials of the war criminals currently taking up space there have yet to happen.

As things stood until that Supreme Court decision, any one of us could be locked up forever by the President without ever learning what we were charged with. THAT is un-American.

The investigation also found that despite the uncertainty about whom they were holding, U.S. soldiers beat and abused many prisoners.

Prisoner mistreatment became a regular feature in cellblocks and interrogation rooms at Bagram and Kandahar air bases, the two main way stations in Afghanistan en route to Guantanamo.

see that?

inspite of the fact that they had no clue what so ever if these people were enemies OR FRIENDS of this country

“people are being arrested to settle old scores, to put a competitor out of business or to solve religious issues and without habeas protection those people framed will never be allowed to prove they were framed…and framed by a terrorist himself who will get off to commit more acts of terrorism because his depravity is not exposed”

ok, that’s too verbose but you get the idea

it reports the abuses of imprisonement withut habeas protection, it is exactly what I extrapolated would be happeing;

An eight-month McClatchy investigation in 11 countries on three continents has found that Akhtiar was one of dozens of men — and, according to several officials, perhaps hundreds — whom the U.S. has wrongfully imprisoned in Afghanistan, Cuba and elsewhere on the basis of flimsy or fabricated evidence, old personal scores or bounty payments.

bingo

What other civilized country beside the USA and Israel uses B-1 bombers ,Cluster bombs ,predatory drones ,rendition and use heavy armor on a regular basis and has a stockpile of weapons of mass destruction . We act as the moral arbitrator of the world on what basis? Depleted Uranium ,did I mention phosphorus, how ’bout water torture,…….

The McClatchy investigations really drive home just how utterly incompetent the Bushies are. Seven years, over a million lives, millions of refuges trillions of dollars and it looks as though they have managed to capture only a small handful of folks who had anything at all to do with what happened on 9/11. Instead, their blind, unfocused rage has built a much larger number of much more hate-fueled enemies. This damage will take generations to undo.
