6 out of 7 Gitmo Released Detainees Aren't Terrorists
You'd think that would be the headline. But NO! The headline is 1 of 7 released detainees return to battlefield. And that is painted as a bad thing.
Well, first of all, fuck yeah! Why the fuck wouldn't these horribly mistreated souls return to war against the US?
Second of all-- isn't it to our intense shame that 6 of 7 Gitmo detainees aren't terrorists? Or even if they have been rehabilitated somehow, wouldn't that be a GOOD THING?
But of course the idea that 6 of 7 Gitmo detainees aren't terrorists is so terrifying, it's used as a reason NOT to close Gitmo.
HOW FUCKED UP AND IDIOTIC IS OUR PUBLIC DISCOURSE?
