I don't care much for the rights of terrorists myself. I don't care much for paedophiles either but certainly wouldn't lynch anyone merely suspected of it. The extra-judicial nature of Gitmo pisses all over the sense of justice of which the West should be rightfully proud. How can we know that they are terrorists if there has not been due process? More importantly, will this establishment ever be shut down? The term unlawful combatants is also one with which I am uncomfortable. The war in Afghanstan, for example, is over (apparently). Either send them back or prosecute them as criminals. The same goes for suspected terrorists.
