Merc, what is happening is that the US put out bounties for "Al Qaeda" members and then people would tip off the Americans about innocent people just to receive the money. Those innocent people were tortured while the US knew they were innocent but were too prideful to let them go and admit their huge mistake.

That shouldn't be a scary thing directed at you. It should be a scary thing that your country would do something like that.

They still have every claim to be protected under Habeas Corpus and the Geneva Convention.
