What's wrong with kangaroo courts? Just put a uniform on one and hand him a set of scales.

That's all that is required for justice right? Actually I'm surprised the Brass would go along with this.
It certainly does not improve the US military standing either in the US or the World, and the recruiting for Al Qaeda still gets fodder to feed new recruits. It just makes us look like a bunch of goons instead of the professional soldiers that we are. I resent that.

I guess Obama is tired of hearing about these folks and wants to close Gitmo. He still allows rendition, but apparently rendering 240 prisoners is a bit much.
