    So we have two Americans who are against the policy of Gitmo, and believe it was used to mistreat them.

    In addition they were freed with the help of Sean Penn, and Hugo Chavez. They are a conservatives worst nightmare.

    Oh, I get it, I just don't happen to subscribe to the "America causes this with their own actions" bit.

    Are we perfect, nope, but we are far far far far far better than that piss ant government that is running Iran.

    The Iranian people deserve better....

    DaDakota might just be the poster boy for "generally smart American who is nevertheless ignorant as all hell".

    America didn't cause the hikers capture, but their treatment was excused because of America's actions. That's straight from the hikers personal experience.

    American can't violate human rights and then turn around and lambast others who do the exact same thing. It's one of the reasons the Army has been against torture of POW's for many decades. They don't want US POW's to suffer the torture.

    You don't have to buy it, but people who've been held prisoner by Iran, and the US Army buys into it.

    No no no, FB. AMERICA IS THE BESTEST. IRAN IS THE SUCK. EVERYTHING WE DO IS AWESOME, EVERYTHING THEY DO SUCKS. EVEN IF THEY"RE THE SAME.

    I'll have a healthy dose of patriotic ignorance, waiter. And a side order of cognitive dissonance.

    I don't give any credibility to what they said after being in prison for 2 years and subjected to all that garbage spewed by Iran.

    This was a snatch and grab and a $1.5 million ransom by the Iranian government.

    I would immediatly like to see a $1.5 million dollar reward for the capture of their supreme leader.

    Tit for tat.....

    You do not compare stupid people looking at flowers to terrorists......only fools with agendas do that.....RHAD...I am looking at you !

    BTW - that article that Rhad posted has since been taken down, I wonder why? Perhaps it was inaccurate, or made up?

    Sorry Dada, you're fantasy of a vast anti-american conspiracy is just as dumb as virtually everything else you've posted in this thread.

    Salon's website is down (don't know why). But you can read about the interview (and watch it in full) here.

    From here on out, I promise not to interfere with your nonstop volley of vapid and nonsensical posts. Keep fighting the good fight though, for all the other 40+ yr-olds stuck with the brainpower of a 6th grader.

    No argument. Never was the argument. Never even was remotely debated.

    Yeah, you just wanted to come in here and post the "It is all Americas fault" crap.

    Always looking to find blame with other people than the ones that are doing the crime.

    GOT TO BE A REASON RIGHT?

    Never going to break the cycle with that lack of responsibility attitude Rhad....

    And then calling folks names because you can't win them over with your blame someone else approach.

    TSK TSK TSK....
