      That's real bright. This guy also said today that censorship was needed and that we should consider targeting and killing war correspondants to drive the point home. I'm sure he's about to become a rising star of the journalistic community.

      Hitler and Germans said the same thing about Jews in the 30s and 40s.

        The difference is Jews weren't committing acts of terrorism on other human beings.

          Got some evidence that ALL of the Gitmo detainees were committing terrorism? WAIT we KNOW that at least the Uighers were years ago determined to NOT be combatants. Saying the Gitmo detainees are not even human is a way to make it OK to treat them however we want. It is an excuse and really a pathetic one. Until we PROVE they have done something wrong it is simply not civilized to punish them AS criminals. Remember many of them were simply SOLD to us for bounty by the Afghan warlords not that trustworthy a lot.

      Actually humans,out of every other species on earth,are the only ones who "terrorize" other humans.It is something that seperates us from the other animals.
      Of course I don't sympathize with terrorists,I'm just not so stupid and immature as to classify them as "monsters".If all we do is kill,kill,kill,the opposition is gonna recruit,recruit,recruit.Lets get to the bottom of this "terror" pandemic instead of just killing them.

      This guy realizes they are all not "terrorists" yet, but "Terror suspects"... Im sure if he was in the wrong place at the wrong time and falsely convicted of being a terrorist, he would not be saying what he is saying now. Im sure many in Gitmo are completely guilty, but to dehumanize them before a trial is appalling.

      Col. Peters is an ethically-withered imbecile. He refers to the idea of the state murdering prisoners "politically incorrect". He disdainfully rejects international law, American-signed international treaties, and the Constitution of the United States as annoying impediments to the sort of hooting, chest-thumping violence that he'd like to unleash on The Other. He doesn't believe in granting legal rights to ACCUSED terrorists. And how do we know that they're all actually guilty of the crimes that they've been accused of? He doesn't give a rat's ass, but argues instead that we should simply kill them all and let God sort them out.
      Col Peters is anything but a patriot.
      He is just another Reich wing sociopath and a smug, slow-witted thug.
