America really needs to stop torturing those poor terrorists at Gitmo. Why, we've given them laptops, but no internet.
Read from Jihad Watch:
Torture: Jihadists, including KSM, allowed to use laptops at Gitmo
"'...raising concerns among security officials that the terrorism suspects could pass sensitive data to terrorists in the future, according to U.S. officials.'
Uh, yeah.
Will the self-deception and dhimmi idiocy never end?
'Gitmo suspects allowed laptops while in custody,' by Bill Gertz at the Washington Times, March 19 (thanks to all who sent this in):
'The Pentagon allowed five captured al Qaeda members currently held at the Guantanamo Bay prison to use laptop computers in detention, raising concerns among security officials that the terrorism suspects could pass sensitive data to terrorists in the future, according to U.S. officials.
The computers, without Internet access, were provided to Sept. 11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and four other suspected 9/11 conspirators at the prison at the U.S. naval base in Cuba after approval by senior Pentagon officials in September 2008.
The battery-powered laptops were kept in the detainees' cell areas, and limitations on their use were imposed, defense officials said. The practice continued until January, when charges against the five were temporarily dropped after Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. announced the men would be tried in civilian court, not by military commission.
Mr. Holder then backed off plans to hold trials in federal court in New York City and said this week that a decision on where to conduct the trials is expected in the coming weeks.
In addition to Mohammed, the other al Qaeda members who were given computers were Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash, Ramzi Binalshibh, Ali Abdul Aziz Ali and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al-Hawsawi.
The computer access was granted by Guantanamo authorities before an Oct. 6, 2008, ruling by Marine Corps Col. Ralph H. Kohlmann, a military judge, that formally granted the five terrorism suspect the right to use computers, said Col. Les Melnyk, a Pentagon spokesman....'"
John McCain only wishes he had been treated 1/4 as well as these savages when he was held by the Viet Cong.

Hmmmm... let's think this through for at least a millisecond....
Has anybody suggested that allowing these prisoners access to a laptop constitutedd "torture"? Of course not.
Does giving them access to laptops mean that they've never been tortured on other occasions? Of course not.
Please note WHEN these decisions were made, by the way.
"...approval by senior Pentagon officials in September 2008..."
"...an Oct. 6, 2008, ruling by Marine Corps Col. Ralph H. Kohlmann, a military judge..."
Let's see -- when was Barack Obama elected President of the United States? November 4, 2008.
When was Barack Obama sworn in as President of the United States? January 20, 2009.
AFTER these decisions were made.
Meaning: all this transpired during the term of that noted Socialist Muslim terrorist sympathizer, George W. Bush.
Where's our response, Ms. ML? Or are you too busy writing a blistering post denouncing George W. Bush and Dick Cheney? LMAO
Sorry, Diogenes, I thought I had responded to this story. In fact, I'm certain I did. Maybe I commented on another post, or somehow it didn't get posted.
Nevertheless, my point of this letter was to show how well these savages are treated. This had nothing whatsoever to do with Obama.
So,since they were given access to laptops, this proves that they weren't tortured?
