Using your method of reason, some1 from amsterdam would argue hes allowed to smoke pot in the us since he can do it in his home country. Think before you post
Myth is right about this. Personally I would argue that the Taliban and Al Queda captured in Afghanistan should have been killed, in greater numbers, but the interrogations that have been carried out may have prevented further attacks on our soil.

Let's be honest: a conventional, legal trial for them would have been a circus, making us look bad, and stupid, in many ways - not to mention leaving us wide open for more of the same attacks. We made a mistake supporting them in their battle with the U.S.S.R, and they turned on us by allowing the people from outside to use them for jihad against us. This was more than outrageous, it was unforgivable. After they drove out the Russians, with our training and equipment, we continued to give the country millions a year in foreign aid - and we were thanked with thier providing a base for the people responsible for attacking and , eventually, 9/11. They don't deserve the Geneva convention.
