re: #313 bloodstar

I understand and respect your point. However as a counterpoint, I think we do need to examine what sort of actionable intelligence we got from Abu Zubaydah, who was interrogated with a standard rapport building interrogation. I don’t believe every Muslim is a fanatic bent on killing everyone else. Maybe we’d be better off simply focusing on the people who can be turned and accepting that the real hardcore fanatics should just be locked away and left to rot?

I don’t want them locked away to rot with the consolation that they continued to harbor intel that could save thousands of innocent lives, and kept it from the hated infidels, to awaken with joy and anticipation each morning, hoping for news that their perfidious secret plots had reached bloody fruition.

But maybe that’s just me. But I don’t think so.
