The bad part is what the media is leaving out...the fact that the only ones sent to Gitmo were the worst, most dangerous ones we simply could not risk running loose. The majority of the prisoners were sent to jail in country. The ones that got sent to Gitmo weren't the guys conducting ambushes and emplacing IEDs, they are the ones who trained others, distributed, planned and coordinated.

It was VERY hard to send a detainee to Gitmo. We caught a big fish in 04 named on 'the list' and it still took 3 months to get him sent away.

Once he got to Gitmo the shrinks deemed him not a threat and they sent him back to Khandahar where he was promptly released back into the general populace. About 3 weeks later we killed him in an ambush. We killed another former Gitmo detainee the deployment after that one as well. Judging by my personal experience, 100% of them go back to it.
