    The men also get religious re-education and are promised a new home and car if they behave.
    Um....excuse me but could someone please strap this bomb on my back??? I need a new car!
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    It's not like he's going to open the door and let them go free!!! They will most likely be put here in the US. Say what you want, I wouldn't want to be any one of them in a US prison where some of our hard core criminals can get their hands on them.

    Mercy! A president who is actually trying to keep his campaign promises!!! Lord, help us all!!!
    No matter what anyone does, someone some where will be offended some how!!!!

    YOU are so DUMB!


    That would give you a 'dowager's hump', Women Homicide Bombers strap the bombs in the front, so they look preggers!

    LOL, with the goofiness of some of the grants given to 'art' in this country....

    Or

    "Can I have PEACH color crayon? I need to color in blown up bodies of infidels!"

    Or

    I used to send out martyrs for living. Now I have Art Exhibits in SoHo, San Francisco and West Lost Angeles !

    Nothing there that said he shouldnt have been detained in the first place. In fact al-Shihri admits he was a terrorist.

    Well, as far as I understood it, other countries will be asked to take some of the detainees, and I heard earlier today that the French gouvernment has already worked out a paper. And I know that there's a discussion among the German political parties right now whether they will agree to take some of the detainees, or not. I do not think that all these people are meant to be set free, they will just go to other prisons.

    Besides, George W. Bush was considering the closing of Guantanamo also: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,194634,00.html

    They can stop anyone they want, but if he is never actually charged
    with a crime, he should be released. That's American law.

    He was not being held under American Law. If he were he would not have been released to the Saudis.

    The real problem is now more of them will eventually be released from whatever country they get sent to.
