Yes some of the replies are amusing and some are pretty stupid as well.

On the point made about US assistance to the IRA. Have you noticed that such comments often hint that the US condones this type of support. Sadly, there are those individuals in the US who support either IRA or Loyalist terrorists but there are individuals who support other such groups around the world as well and its very dificult to control. I wonder how much money find its way to the IRA out of the Irish population in England or to ME terrorist groups out of arab populations in Europe?

As usual on this forum the US is singled out with no mention that this type of thing is wide spread.

It would be interesting to know if the people who whine about why the US dosn’t prevent such support, are the same ones to like to whine that recent anti-terrorist legislation in the US are is unjust and un-democratic. Just a thought.

That bit about Stingers being used against US forces is a surprise to me. While I admit I know little about them, I thought they are mainly for use aganist aircraft and helos and I don’t recall such US loses to enemy action recently. Any info on this?

Lastly, do you know at which CIA facility Osama and Saddam were trained at?

Ah Garry. Still bitter over the implosion of the good old USSR I see.

Its facinating how the only people in the world who still carry a torch for communism never had to live under it and are safely tucked away in democratic counties like NZ.

Well I agree with Hand and Mongu. The Canadian army has had similar crimes commited by members as well. The only thing we can hope for is that when these crimes happen , proper action is taken.

I have no solution to this issue but why limit it to just the prisioners held by the US in Cuba? Lets include all such types held regardless of where they are held or by whom and not single out the US which is the only reason anyone is interested in this thread in first place.

If we are going to stand for truth and justice and everything that goes with it, then lets get on with it. Everyone here should climb down from their political/moral soapbox and take their halos off.

There are terror groups all over the world who for one reason or another, murder innocent men women and children without a moments hesitation to advance some cause and the world hasn’t figured out how to deal with them because of the political, social, racial and moral overtones.

The prisioners in Cuba are there because the US believes they are criminals whatever they may say offically about POW’s and the rest of it and they are going to handle it in their own way until they are convinced they (the US) will get justice through some other means.

Anything to divert attention from the real serious issues and events that some folks would like to just go away.
