US to keep terror suspects they can't try in jail for Life !

 

See below

 

Why ?

 

1. Because they don't have any evidence to try them on !

 

2. Because if they release them they might write a book about Guantanamo

like that English guy they released or maybe even sue them for war

crimes.

 

3. Of course the US Taxpayer gets to pay for this for the next 50 +

years.

 

To quote Mike Maloy talk show host on the Air America Radio

Network. " Have I told You How Much I hate These People Yet Today ? "

US Said to Mull Lifetime Terror-Suspect Detentions

MORE

 

 

 

WASHINGTON (Reuters) -

The Bush administration is preparing plans for possible lifetime

detention of suspected terrorists,

 

---> !! " Including hundreds whom the government does not have enough

evidence to charge in courts, "

 

The Washington Post reported Sunday.

Citing intelligence, defense and diplomatic officials, the newspaper

said the Pentagon and the CIA had asked the White House to decide on a

more permanent approach for those it would not set free or turn over to

courts at home or abroad.

 

As part of a solution, the Defense Department, which holds 500 prisoners

at Guantanamo Bay,

Plans to ask the U.S. Congress for $25 million to build a 200-bed

prison to hold detainees who are unlikely to ever go through a military

tribunal for lack of evidence, defense officials told the newspaper.

The new prison, dubbed Camp 6, would allow inmates more comfort and

freedom than they have now, and would be designed for prisoners the

government believes have no more intelligence to share, The Post said.

" It would be modeled on a U.S. prison and would allow socializing

among inmates, " the paper said. (Isn't that damn White of them ? !)

" Since global war on terror is a long-term effort, it makes sense for

us to be looking at solutions for long-term problems, "

Bryan Whitman, a Pentagon spokesman, was quoted as saying. " This has

been evolutionary, but we are at a point in time where we have to say,

'How do you deal with them in the long term? " '

A Pentagon spokeswoman, Lt. Col. Ellen Krenke of the Air Force, had no

information on the reported plan.

The Post said the outcome of a review under way would also affect

those expected to be captured in the course of future counterterrorism

operations.

One proposal would transfer large numbers of Afghan, Saudi and Yemeni

detainees from the U.S. military's Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, detention

center into new U.S.-built prisons in their home countries, it said.

The prisons would be operated by those countries, but the State

Department, where this idea originated, would ask them to abide by

recognized human rights standards and would monitor compliance, a senior

administration official was quoted as saying.
