Ahahaa, great stuff!

*Club Gitmo - Beating the **** out of terrorists since 2002!* Id by it.

[Proletariat]

My, but this is in extremely poor taste.

Yeah. No where near as classy as the 'American Taliban' thread.

[Dâriûsh]

Perhaps Mr Limbaugh ought to spend some time in "Club G'itmo" himself.

[Gawain of Orkeny]

I left out the best part. I hope this works.



Listen

[Goofball]

Yeah. No where near as classy as the 'American Taliban' thread.

Yes, and one bad turn always deserves another.



I was quite circumspect when I posted in that thread because I saw the potential for conservatives/Christians to see it as nothing more than an attempt to inflame and insult. And I was right, many of our conservative members became quite incensed about the thread and one even claims to have left the Org for good.

But to act indignant about that thread, and then jump into and exult in the blatant schadenfreude of this thread is nothing short of hypocrisy.

Yes, buy some Gotmo-wear. But I think this would make a better t-shirt or coffee mug:

I haven't seen DD since.

Are you implying I'm doing this? I think I know who you mean, and you're absolutely right.


Let's just see if this thread gets the 'Oh, but it's tongue-in-cheek!!' treatment for three pages.

[Goofball]

Are you implying I'm doing this?

No.

[Gawain of Orkeny]

Well I ordered my Mug and the shirt that says "What Happens in G'itmo stays in G'itmo emblazoned on back." today. Their very reasonably priced.

Who are you trying to impress? lol, you're here all the time.

[Tribesman]

Yes but how many times has he left before ? Between absences from leaving and absences due to bans he does miss a lot of time . He will return

[ichi]

Damn Gawain that's funny stuff

They should add horseback rides on the beach and tripsinto Cuba to shop for souvenirs

The problem with Gitmo, as with many aspects of the "war on terror" itself, is not that it exists, but that it is inefficient, wasteful, and slow.

Machiavelli said when you are going to hurt someone or do something bad, do it all at once and get it over with so people can forget about it and get on with other things. What's wrong with the Gitmo situation is that it is dragging on while giving, even the people it is protecting, the impression that it is wrong, embarrassing, and inefficient. Imagine what the people who really don't like the place think.

[KafirChobee]

Not sure which was first, but here's another :

The problem with Gitmo is, it is a permanent situation for all there - 'til the end of hostilities. They are without recourse, beyond any true legal system and (many) are held incognito. Even the information being gained (purportedly) is secret, and will remain so until some one with common sense is allowed to look at it.

Like the T-shirt, Gawain.

[KafirChobee]

.. And to think I laughed so hard!

Anyway Gitmo is a disgrace which shows the US' BS about wanting to spread 'freedom and liberty'. It is the face of US self interest and hate for any form of international law / human rights.

It is an embarrassment for your country, but while you continue to believe it solves problems and makes your position in the world safer, you will continue to add flames to the fire rather than try and solve them. Nevermind.

[Tribesman]

Hey lighten up Jag , the reality can be even funnier that the spoofs .
Didn't you read some of the unclassified interrogation transcripts the Dept of Defense released 2 weeks ago ?
There was one hilarious one where the detainee said he was going to settle in the Caribbean if he was ever released and start a chicken farm , but he was concerned that the Americans would raid the farm and take away all his chickens because they may have links to Al-Qaida ... Priceless

[JAG]

Very funny, but you never know, you wouldn't put it past the US doing it, now that is even funnier.

I'll never understand the 'If you'd just be nicer to them they wouldnt hurt us' mentality. Apparently 9/11 didn't disprove that well enough for some people...

Brilliant! Even more impressive that he maintained his sense of humor there.

[Gawain of Orkeny]

He mentioned that in his show today. As a matter of fact he came up with the idea for that one today on the show and has already ordered it into production and posted it in the EIB store. He is very quick Las Vegas has no copyright on that phrase. In fact thats what makes the shirt funny.

Im sure this line of clothing will continue to grow over the coming weeks. And to think he will probably make 100s of thousands of dollars off it.

[JAG]

That is because you were NOT nice to them. With your dodgy deals and back stabbing behind close doors - you helped FUND AQ for **** sake - you created the problem and expanded it, 9/11 was the result. Now you do your dirty laundry in public for the 'great cause'. Nothing has changed and the thread is growing.

[PanzerJaeger]

Exactly how was helping them get rid of the soviets "not nice"?

If it werent for US deals those people would be living in even deeper dirt(or sand) than they already do.

You are right though, this is our problem(not yours) - and we are fixing it, no need for comments from the peanut gallery.



America's biggest weakness is America itself, not any self righteous socialists. The country is so soft its almost disgusting.

Considering the threat these people could pose with modern weaponry, the diet should contain a few less canned peaches and a few more canned faces.

Im afraid its going to take another 9/11 for people to realize this isnt a game. We dont have the luxury of debating how our enemies are treated with anti-american socialists.

If we really want to win this war we have to make life so horrible for all AQ and all who associate with them the mere thought of AQ will send a shiver down an arab's back even in the hottest desert.

Instead of demonstrating how well we feed this scum, we should string them up before CNN and God himself and castrate the animals. That will make Abu Nobody think twice before strapping that bomb to his camel.

[Ironside]

Pazer, what a hollow victory that would be. "The great Satan" proving by themself to be what it's said to be. Ruling by fear isn't an effective way to rule. For example, would Iran even consider to improve thier ties with the US (that seems to be an election issue) if you did this?

Instead of demonstrating how well we feed this scum, we should string them up before CNN and God himself and castrate the animals. That will make Abu Nobody think twice before strapping that bomb to his camel.

I assume that you're aware that the biggest threat to the freedom of the US is it's citizens and/or goverment, not the terrorists?

If you really want to win this war then you should be a little more efficient , Of the 10s of thousands who have been detained (nearly 70,000 now) how many have been Al-Qaida ? So instead of crushing this group you have instead created a huge number of people with a genuine reason to hate America , plus you can add all their friends, family and people who just hear about it to the number .
Yesterday the Afghan government said Al-qaida presence was on the rise again in that country (they are blaming Pakistan once again for supporting this group) . Last week the Iraqi government said Al-Qaida were increasing their numbers , efforts and sophistication . The US government has now added 6 more countries to is list of African countries where Al-Qaida is present and active .
So how is progress in the fight against Al-Qaida going ? Not very well at all .

Oh and before you come back with your usual "but we have taken out 2/3 of the leadership" consult your government , on the list of the 33 identified senior figures they have accounted for 12 of them .

we should string them up before CNN and God himself and castrate the animals. That will make Abu Nobody think twice before strapping that bomb to his camel.
Possibly , but first you have to make sure you are getting the right people , so far that is not the case . So far the actions of the governments have served only as a propoganda victory and recruiting tool for the fundamentalists . If you start stringing people up without evidence rather than just locking them up without evidence you will find a hell of a lot more Abu Nobodies willing those strap that bombs to their camels .

More spin there I think. The majority of the 'nearly 70,000' have been freed already- and I doubt anyone really thought many of them were AQ members either. What they were was most likely Taliban and Iraqi forces that were captured on the battlefield. You do realize that there is a necessity to take prisoners during warfare don't you? And again, most of these have been released, so lets not make it out like we're holding 70,000 people in 'gulags'.

Honestly, how many Germans were "detained" during WW2? Millions? With today's attitudes I'm not sure it'd be possible to prosecute a conflict like that anymore.

And become hated by the rest of the wrold in the process.........

Well what to say, after freedom fries this is hardly a step back.
