Does this not simply help the terrorists? They already think the rest of the world are weak people. They really don't care how we treat them, but delight in any controversy among civilation.
What do you think?

Yes its crazy, but if the government dosent say something first, the media will, and that makes it look like a big "secret" and people get pissed. Its a ..lose, lose.. situation in my opinion.

It does not help the terrorists any more than discussing how investigations are performed on normal criminal suspects. And by discussing what constitutes lawful interogation methods, it gives a much-needed increase in the credibility of the United States.

You do not say which prisoners you are referring to. Also it would help is you would define who you mean by your use of the word 'terrorist'.
Additionally - if you 'know' what other people 'care' about can you please tell us how you gained this insight or how you came to your conclusions.
What I think is that you are a moron who would do better to spend a few minutes with a Thesaurus and a dictionary before vomiting your witless pseudo intellect into cyberspace.

War is nuts. Taking prisoners is nuts. Everyone's nuts. We're slowing destroying ourselves.

I think that we should discuss nothing but television shows or sports. Leave the thinking to the Businessmen that run Washington.

Yes, we're nuts. There is far too much information being put out there for the world to see. Being informed is good to a certain extent, but I still believe an amount of ignorance is bliss.

In some cases the media needs to be tried for treason

yes, we should not deteriorate our image as the "good guys". by weakening the Geneva Convention so we can torture these Iraqi detainees, we will appear more vicious -.-

Yes. American's give too many rights and freedoms to criminals. People need to be tough on crime even if it means giving up a few freedoms. Reducing crime and terrorism is clearly the higher priority.

Its like when you were a child and children picked on other children. If you brought attention to it it made it worse . But if you ignored it they would stop right. I think they like the attention.
