Great Quote on Gitmo

From Juan Cole:

Terrorists are dirty criminals who should be tried, and if found guilty, put away for life. Terrorists are criminals. They are not non-human, and any attempt to create a category of human beings to whom the protections of the law do not apply is an attempt to undermine the Republic.

This sums up what is so terribly, terribly wrong with Guantanamo, ghost detainees, renditions, and every other horrible thing that the Pentagon and the CIA want to do in the name of security.
