[Happy Monkey]

Some were scooped up in a war zone (ie, random locations in Afghanistan), some were turned in by locals for whatever reason. Neither method is by any stretch of the imagination foolproof. The beef with the administration is that they are resisting any attempts to allow trials of any meaningful kind to determine whether they are innocent. In the meantime, they are treating them as if they have already been convicted. Given their methods, I think it is all but certain that there are substantial numbers of innocent people there, as already turned out to be true in Iraqi POW prisons, and those people (and their family and friends back home) are not getting a very good impression of the US.

My point wasn't that all the people there are loveable little angels who wouldn't hurt a fly. My point is that once they are released, our actions have made it much more likely that they will fight us, whether or not they were fighting us in the first place. UT said that the fact that some releasees (people that even the heavily tilted Pentagon hearings determined were innocent) turned on us made him less concerned about how the US treats its prisoners. That's what I was responding to.
