"Their lives are forfeit, and only necessity and our innate humanity keeps them alive for any given length of time."
Just when thing the Right can't sink any lower, they do. They've moved from the "few bad apples" defence, to the others are worse defense, to now just outright defending torture.
Remember, these people have gone through no trials--in many cases have not even been told what they are charged with. But because we suspect them, we can go ahead and just kill them. And that mostly just out of necessity.
This whole war is about revenge for 9/11. Not stopping terrorist, or preventing another attack. It's just about striking out blindly to hurt someone the way we were hurt.
