From a recent GITMO vet:
Not only are the detainees treated humanely (top-notch medical care, hearty meals, recreational facilities, full access to religious observance, etc..) but I personally witnessed instances when detainees did not want to leave. It was not uncommon for my platoon to guard an airfield for hours in preparation for sending a detainee home, only to turn around and bring him back to the detention facility – because he refused to leave! These detainees are not stupid—they know that real torture and inhumane treatment await them at home. And while I know they’re not happy to be in GTMO, they rest assured that they will be treated well because Americans play by the rules.
They. Don''t. Want. To. Leave.
Powerline has the whole thing. Make no mistake. The design behind insane charges like those made by Senator Durbin is to tie the current administration to torture for their own political gain. They don't care what damage they do to America in the process. Thankfully, in this great nation, the public is a whole lot smarter than the Democrats give us credit for:
