Our bad

The Supreme Court has rejected an appeal from two Chinese Muslims who were mistakenly captured more than four years ago and are still being held at the U.S. prison in Cuba. The military has decided that the two men snatched up in Pakistan in 2001are not "enemy combatants" after all.

Oops. Our bad. Just one of those things.

So we want to ship them somewhere else, anywhere else. You know, somewhere where if they complain about what we did to them we won’t hear about it. (Not that the corporate media would pay any attention to them anyway.) So far, there are no takers so we won’t let them go.

Whatever. The Supreme Court is not interested. If they don’t care about the rape of our own Bill of Rights, why should they care what we do to a couple of damn foreigners.
