Hound, I agree they needed to get this going again awhile ago, especially after they experienced the bipartisan opposition to holding civil trials in the U.S. court system. However, I actually don't think the military tribunals will result in the closing of Gitmo and here is why. We are still going to have house those that are convicted (assuming they are of course). I suppose if most of them are acquitted then it is possible they could find an alternative place to hold a lot fewer prisoners but even then I doubt it. This is especially the case if you look at all the news about Muslim Americans being radicalized. My opinion is that the last thing we need is for radical Muslims in Gitmo to be brought to the U.S. and put in our prisons where they can spread their fanatical beliefs. I know we will be promised that they will be detained separately but once they get on U.S. soil the attorneys will flock to court to force them into the general prison population. I will point out that these are all just my opinion and like various parts of the anatomy we all have them. :-)

Am curious, what do you think?
