Gitmo Terrorists

For starters I don't consider these people "detainees". That's a term some politician or media weasel came up for these people. These are terrorists, so let's not forget that first of all. Of those who have been released roughly 1 in 7 have returned to the battle field. I look at that as a failure on our part. Were they trained well enough to be able to convince our CIA experts that they were non-combatants? Or are we using them as pawns to track back to their camps for further intel. Who knows?

Lastly, and something that our media is either too ignorant to figure out and ask questions about but is that dropping these terrorists into prison populations is, in my opinion, just as dangerous as dropping them on some street corner. While in prison they may not be a direct threat to our lives they possibly become an even greater threat. It's no secret (unless you work for the NY Times or Washington Post perhaps), that a great number of Islamic terrorists are recruited in prisons worldwide including our own. So injecting known terrorists into general or even restricted prison populations is a threat as they become prison mullahs, free to spread their warped view of Islam to captive audiences. Possibly gaining celebrity status among already militant Islamic prison gangs or organizations where they teach and educate others how to network inside and more importantly outside upon release. If we keep these terrorists here in the US. We have to make sure we continue to keep them isolated from other prisoners permanently.
