They should all be gone... Off the face of the planet, yes. Walking the streets of Saudi Arabia, not so much.

But I want you to know that there IS a difference between "thinking" and "knowing" when someone accuses me of only "thinking"... when I'm not...
You guys aren't that stupid... I don't "think"... well, on second "thought"... maybe some of you are...

My comment stands... So you think the people we have locked up in GITMO weren't engaged in the global jihad? Alright. If that's what you want to believe.

These guys were not "soldiers"... otherwise they wouldn't be labeled "enemy combatants"... Neither were most of the NVA we caught. Nor the VC. And as long as we are at war with terrorists, we have no reason to let their people out.

Or just stop taking prisoners. Battlefield executions would probably cause some stir amongst the "Progressive" proletariat, however.

It might become necessary. So far as I can tell, the last person who successfully intimidated an Islamic horde bent on conquest was Vlad the Impaler.
