All TV News sucks.
If you think one is good and another is bad that just shows how brainwashed you are. They're all chock full of ankle deep coverage of complex issues, jingoism and dizzying spin.

Not because it reports well, but because it helps feed their paranoia, to which they have become addicted. So Fox is more sensational than say CBS or NBC? You have to be kidding! Have you been under a rock for the last year? What do you think these outlets feed YOU? Of course you rubes take it hook, line and sinker. |

The Arabs no doubt see the situation as a threat from both sides. The paranoia builds. The genius Bush then comes out with his 'Crusade' blunder and makes things even worse. Most of the world no doubt sees the Missile defense shield as a means of preventing revenge attacks after the US goes on a conquest binge under the guise of pre-emptive, before the fact obliteration of another dozen countries. Scary? Sure, but plausible. The first country the USA ever attacked was Libya. We've been ****ing with the Moslems ever since. Their wariness is warranted. Bin Laden has a list. The toughest thing on it is for us to deal fairly with Israel and Palestine and to not take sides in that struggle. Seems doable. |
So, which is it? "Death camp" where thousands are killed
for the crime of being jewish/muslim/whatever, or a prison camp that has an execution chamber, where those who have been convicted of capital crimes can be executed? The whole shock value and (apparent) satisfaction of saying "Death Camps" relys on the fact that like most maximum security prisons in the US, the prison at Guantanamo will have an execution chamber. Why we haven't heard "the US has DEATH CAMPS all over it's landscape!!" for the past 25 years or so probably has everything to do with the current administrations' policies, and not any real desire for change. Therefore, shouting about this now when nothing has really changed is the equivalent of the Howler Monkey Syndrome. Just like the other thread; if you really wish Americans dead or think they are stinking piles of crap, why not do more than just hurl feces at Americans?? If we're really all degenerates who are a threat and abomination to the world, why are you sitting at home conversing with us?? --Mike L. "m II" wrote in message news:qQOtd.5815$U47.3211@clgrps12...

Prisoners would be tried, convicted and executed without leaving its boundaries, without a jury and without right of appeal, The Mail on Sunday newspaper reported yesterday. The plans were revealed by Major-General Geoffrey Miller, who is in charge of 680 suspects from 43 countries, including two Australians. The suspects have been held at Camp Delta on Cuba without charge for 18 months. General Miller said building a death row was one plan. Another was to have a permanent jail, with possibly an execution chamber. http://www.nielsenhayden.com/makingl...es/002651.html ========================================= Although the death camp is "seen as logical by the US," according to the Herald Sun, international human rights activists are infuriated. "This camp was created to execute people," said Jonathan Turley, an American law professor who has led civil rights protests against Guantanamo Bay military tribunals. "The administration has no interest in long-term prison sentences for people it regards as hard-core terrorists." http://www.utne.com/web_special/web_...s/10572-1.html |
You're a paranoid guy.
By the way, Fox isn't nearly as embraced as you'd think. Many watch it - I do on occasion - but I can tell that you every person on that network would collapse under a challenge from an intelligent objective reviewer (including Hannity, O'Reilly, and all the rest), and I would bet that many who watch understand the same thing. not only that, but they still only capture a few percent of the viewing public, a smaller percent of the overall population. One thing that is obvious is that Bush has not surrounded himself with people that help him make wise decisions. Every member of his cabinet at one time or another has opened his/her mouth and said something utterly kooky. Most recently, Tommy Thompson, the ex-cabinet member, opined that he couldn't believe that terrorists have not yet attacked our food supply, with so much of our food coming from the Mid-East. This comment is nutty on so many levels that one wonders how he ever got into politics (or out of elementary school). Bush is the Warren G. Harding of the 21st century. Neither is a Fascist, despite the the later president's incredible mode of operation. The only difference is that Bush is healthier...although we understand he used to be an alkie too. Bruce Jensen |
In addition to what everyone else has said about reliability of this
information, I will say that I remember the episode, and I also remember that the idea was flatly trounced by anyone with a brain. It was withdrawn, quickly, and not raised again that I know of. This does not sound like a Nazi nation to me. I am certain that the people of the US on average are strong enough to see through this kind of nonsense at a glance. We love freedom, and we love that our Constitution takes pains to guarantee it. It takes a pretty big problem to wants to restrict those freedoms, and an offhanded suggestion of excessive internal security isn't going to make the big time. Bruce Jensen |

What a joke. I once read somewhere that the States were given independence, but that there was to be a yearly payment, in perpetuity, to England as a form of rental fees. That rental is still being made today. YOU may look that up. I don't know if you CAN look it up, however. Why don't you just show us all the cite on that one 'tard boy. Ask mommy first if you can spend more time on her computer though. LMAO more and more every day at CanaDuh. dxAce Michigan USA |
What, you've never heard of military tribunals for
military personnel? My question stands, because the two are different types. A member of the US military convicted of a capital crime can be sentenced to death. Quite different than executing prisoners of war or mass murder. Does that make Nuremberg a "Death Camp"?? Hardly. But the inference is there, because people were executed there, that I because I think that the trials at Nuremberg were justified as were the outcome, that I must be one sick puppy. Or that because I feel that a guy by the name of Dahmer should have been executed, I am a sick puppy. --Mike L. "m II" wrote in message news:914ud.3745$eb3.2812@clgrps13...
