| O.K. so senator
Dick Durbin
shed some
crocodile tears and
un-convincingly apologized for his
deranged outburst
comparing the United States Military's
treatment of the Guantanamo
detainees to the atrocities wrought by the Soviet Gulags, The Nazi Death
Camps and the Cambodian Killing Fields of the Khmer Rouge. Those regimes
brutally and
systematically exterminated millions of their own innocent men, women
and children simply
because it was politically expedient.
The American people
and our allies in the War on Terror need to
remember that the enemy combatants being held at Camp Delta in
Guantanamo are just that, enemy
combatants. They are not U.S.
citizens. The combatants were captured in the field of battle and are being
detained because they are a threat to the security of our country. These
people being held are not nice people, they are terrorists committed to the
destruction of America and Western Civilization.
The official U.S. policy is to treat the detainees in a
professional and humane manner and I believe that we've bent over backward
to accommodate these detainees.
