Restore Habeas Corpus and end indefinite arrest and detention. Try and convict the people at Gitmo, get them sentenced or get them home whichever is appropriate. End the folly of having a constitution that stands for human rights while not doing anything for human rights.
These are war crimes and Habeas Corpus does not apply. Our Constitution is to protect Americans, not those who want to kill them

No, not all the Guantanamo prisoners are held for war crime and the Supreme Court ruled that those prisoners had a right to submit petitions based on habeas corpus. However, the DC court has chosen to block habeas applications making the process very slow and cumbersome.The constitution is for everyone and is an example of a perfectly worded document that represents freedom for all.
Not to our enemies it doesn't

America wins every time it guarantees the protection of the Bill of Rights and the Constitution to everyone and if you deserve after an honest trial, a needle, then you will get it.
We do not provide trials to POW's. They will be released when the war on terror expires
