Barack Obama and his advisors are crafting plans to close the Guantanamo Bay prison and bring the Iraqi terrorists to the U.S. for open trials.
The plans would call for the creation of a new legal system to handle the classified information. A new legal system would of course cost a ton of money. Guess where the money is going to come from?
You may recall that some of the 250 detainees at Gitmo were captured in Iraq on the battlefield and others were arrested for committing crimes against America following September 11.
Bush imprisoned these terrorists in Cuba for a reason: if tried on American soil, they are entitled to the same constitutional rights as Americans who are tried in the U.S. Justice system.
Under Obama’s plan, some detainees would be released immediately in America since no other country wants them, while others would be tried in U.S. courts, where they would receive constitutional rights.
Leave it to good ol’ Obama to protect the interests of terrorists and give them safe haven while thousands of brothers languish right here in American prisons for crimes they didn’t commit.
