And, of course, no one will blame the U.S. when the prisoners die.

I agree that we shouldn't force feed. Just let them die. In fact, shoot them now.

Is that want these "doctors" want?

Now food is "treatment?"

Well, at least we know they'll go euphorically.

Sandy: I believe it was firmly decided by the US court system that providing food for someone is in fact an "extraordinary measure"...

In the tradition of Mengele, if the prisoners are dead men walking, perhaps the good doctors would endorse some 'vital' experimentation first. Lots of anorexia research, to be sure.

Ratbert: Ooh, we can get them in a Catch-22! Refusal to eat is a sign of a mental disorder (anorexia), so obviously they're not competent to make the decision not to eat and must be force-fed...

So typical. These so-called and self-proclaimed medical ethics experts want to use our own strengths against us. They think that if we are forced to choose betwen letting them starve themselves to death, or set them free, we will have no choice but to choose the latter.

What we really need to do are find ways in which these compassionate and ethically superior progressives are the first, instead of last, to feel the effects of their casual tolerance of the infliction of evil on everyone else.

Those doctors should be made to put their money where their mouths are. Go to Gitmo and oversee the removal of the forced feeding tubes, then sign the death certificates when they die of starvation and them escort their corpses back home to whatever country will accept them.

It's the humane thing to do.

Raoul has it right. Those Drs are NOT just apolitical humanitarians. Their aim is the release of all prisoners.

assign several gitmo prisoners to each of these doctors, living in their homes with their families.
make the cotors responsible for any crimes these guys commit while in their care.

yeah, i thought so.
