Obama Administration Eyeing Navy Brig in South Carolina for Gitmo Detainees, Sources Say

No, no, no and no.  Foreign terrorist suspects should never set foot on American soil for any reason.  I've said this before and I'll say it again, foreign terrorists captured outside the United Stated should be held under the provisions of the Geneva Conventions.  Those conventions  state that captured enemy may be held for the duration of hostilities.  In other words, they can be held until such time as the Islamists stop waging global Jihad.  Nowhere in the Geneva Conventions does it call for captured enemies to be held on the capturing countries territory, only that they be held in safe and humane conditions.  Nowhere in the Geneva Conventions does it call for the civil trial of captured enemy. 

The future will surely produce many more captured Muslim terrorists, both on foreign soil and domestically. So the question becomes, what to do with them.

With or without the Geneva Conventions the obvious solution to incarcerating Islamic terrorists is to use prison ships kept in international waters.  This would eliminate the possibility for escape or communication with those terrorists still at large.

American born or naturalized citizens convicted of any type of terrorist activity or support should be incarcerated for life and a day, no exceptions.  Foreign national terrorists caught on American soil and American born terrorists should also be held on prison ships to keep their fanatical Islamic poison from being spread throughout American civil prison systems. 

Unfortunately, the Bush administration erred early on by trying to deal with foreign terrorists in a quasi-civilian manner.  This of course opened the administration up to countless lawsuits brought by the anti-American fellow travelers of Islamic terrorists.  Had captured enemy combatants been held under the provisions of the Geneva Conventions from the beginning, there would be no opportunity for the outrageous lawsuits now facing the current administration.  Not only do these lawsuits tie up valuable time and resources, more importantly, they are used as a platform for propaganda and media attention for the poor, misunderstood, Muslim terrorists. 

Never forget that the basis of all the Islamic attacks against the West are rooted in the teaching of the Pedophile Mohammed that demands that all Muslims must further the spread of Islam through any means.  The only time limit on the Jihad is that it proceed until Islam dominates all of humanity. 

Where will you be when the Jihad hits the street?

Obama Administration Eyeing Navy Brig in South Carolina for Gitmo Detainees, Sources Say

Sources tell Fox News that one scenario is that a "handful" of detainees who are already in the military courts at Guantanamo could be brought stateside as a "trial run" to test the system.

The Navy brig in Charleston, S.C., is "very much in play" as an option to transfer Guantanamo Bay detainees for military commission hearings in the U.S., multiple sources tell Fox News.
Some sources describe the Naval Consolidated Brig -- which has housed at least two enemy combatants since 9/11 -- as a leading option being considered by the task force reviewing the Guantanamo issue.

The two enemy combatants who were held in the Navy brig were eventually transferred to the federal court system. Ali al Marri was sentenced this week for being an Al Qaeda sleeper agent, and the other detainee, Jose Padilla, was sentenced in 2007 to more than 17 years in prison on terror charges.

Sources familiar with the review tell Fox News that Undersecretary of Defense for Detainee Affairs Phil Carter was present during a site tour of the Navy brig, conducted in the late-September to early-October timeframe.
South Carolina Sen. Lindsey Graham, who supports closing the facility at Guantanamo Bay, said any plan must be thorough.

"Right now, I am not going to agree to have anybody sent from Gitmo for trial anywhere until we have a comprehensive plan," Graham told Fox News.
If military commission hearings go ahead in the U.S., sources tell Fox News that one scenario is that a "handful" of detainees who are already in the military courts at Guantanamo could be brought stateside as a "trial run" to test the system.
It is believed that a site near the Navy brig, possibly a National Guard site, would need to be refurbished as a venue for the military commissions.

A Defense Department spokeswoman did not deny the substance of the reports from Fox News about the Navy Brig or the site tour.
"The Department continues to evaluate facilities in the United States as part of its efforts to close the detention facility at GTMO in accordance with the president's executive order," said Major Tanya J. Bradsher, a Defense Department spokeswoman who handles Guantanamo issues.

A military spokesman for the Navy brig in Charleston referred all calls to the Department of Justice in Washington, where the interagency task force is reviewing all issues related to the closure of the Guantanamo detention camps.

The White House says no decision has been made.
