I don't think anything, really. This is not even without precedent....in fact what is happening now is without precedent. In every major conflict - WWII, Korea, Vietnam, whatever - enemy combatants are held for purposes of intellgence gathering and to ensure they are not returning to assist the enemy. In fact, there are 30 documented cases of capturing someone (in this current conflict), releasing them, and then recapturing them.
Why is something wrong with me when I agree with the precedent previously set?
And ISM, I take no offense at your rhetorical question. I've been accused by you and others here of being a homophobe, a bigot, a racist, and countless other untrue things, so this is nothing, really.
