do a little reading about french politics and you'll realize how ignorant this statement is.

Ever heard of the headscarf ban? Even most americans ( including me ) don't support it.

Maybe you should volunteer to go then. I'm sure Rummy can find something to toss you in for. Oh wait! He doesn't need to. I forgot.

..But there are some in our society that "hate" the French so much. Yet they will not be in favour of giving back the Statue of Liberty.

So it’s okay to deny a human being freedom for how ever long they feel like with no charges, no proof and no reason because they get cable?

That was a joke, right?

if Rummy promises they are "bad guys". Because the government is never wrong. ESPECIALLY a Republican-led government. You can trust them to have the facts right.

I was tempted to post a thread about any of the number of murders that have occurred by Christians over the last few years and title it "American Christians."

Uh, you don't own the land there in Cuba. You are leasing it. MOD EDIT: **personal attack deleted.**

An enemy combatant can be held indefinitely during a time of war. And I think that this quote fits the idea of prisoners of war quite well. "A prisoner of war is somebody who tries to kill you, fails, and then asks not to be killed."
