Sure, it may work like that for awhile, but if we kill enough of them fast enough we should be ok. Especially if we get 'em while they are still really young. That way they can't grow up to be terrorists.

Actually if we just start killing all of them under the age of 2 we should be just fine. You can't even argue that would be wrong since they're not even really human at that age.

@ Lookout: Mandatory abortions might do the trick.

Yeah, but some of them will undoubtedly hide their pregnancy. We have until they are 2.

Constitutional attorney: Guantanamo ‘nearly impossible to close’ thanks to NDAA

Even though President Barack Obama made closing Guantanamo one of his core campaign promises in the lead-up to the presidential election in 2008, that promise now appears to be “nearly impossible” to fulfill thanks to provisions in the new laws, Baher Azmy, legal director of the Center for Constitutional Rights, explained.

“It has no real geographical limitation, it has no temporal limitation,” he said, summarizing key provisions in the NDAA. “It basically puts into law, into permanent law, the ability to indefinitely detain, outside of a constitutional justice system, individuals the president picks up anywhere in the world that the president thinks might have some connection to terrorism. The United States Congress, with the support of the president, has now put into law the possibility of indefinite detention, where the entire world, including the United States, is a battlefield.”

“This legislation puts into law, into a legal architecture, authority for the president to do things that no president has ever been authorized to do before. It’s a scary day for civil liberties if we depend on the graces of the executive not to use power the Congress has given them.”
