The Pentagon’s own reports on detainees who have returned to the battlefield are unreliable and false according to its own data and prior reports, sometimes including duplicate names, names of people who never at Guantánamo and people who have never left their homelands.
Several convicted terrorists have been prosecuted and successfully incarcerated in high-security federal prisons --including Colorado's Supermax facility -- without posing any risk to the public's safety, including Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind sheik convicted in the first World Trade Center attacks.
Dangerous criminals who have committed horrible crimes are locked up in prisons all over this country every day and nobody wages campaigns objecting to that. This is clearly a politically motivated fear-mongering effort from those who wish to perpetuate the Bush administration's failed illegal detention policies.
