Almost 900 Detainees in Iraq Set Free in July, Officials Say American Forces Press Service
WASHINGTON, Aug. 1, 2005 ? Almost 900 of the nearly 2,000 detainees held in brigade- and division-level internment facilities in Iraq were released in July, U.S. military officials in Baghdad reported. "The release of detainees is a positive step toward the fundamentals of establishing a democracy," said Army Col. Arnaldo Claudio, the provost marshal for Multinational Corps Iraq, which oversees combat and stability operations in the country. "It is also an indication of Iraqi and coalition forces working together towards a common objective - a free and prosperous Iraq."
The colonel emphasized that the detainees had been treated well. "Detainees are treated humanely and receive medical and dental care, as well as three meals per day, as they are processed through the detainee system," Claudio noted. "In addition to the health screening, detainee spiritual needs are addressed through access to a Quran and prayer rug."
Claudio went on to say that the release of nearly 7,000 Iraqis from division and brigade internment facilities during the first six months of the year demonstrates the case review system set in place works.

"The release of detainees is a positive step toward the fundamentals of establishing a democracy," said Army Col. Arnaldo Claudio, the provost marshal for Multinational Corps Iraq, which oversees combat and stability operations in the country.
The detainees were free before US troops occupied Iraq. So catching people, totally disrupting their lives and preventing them from feeding their families and then letting them go is a sign of democracy and freedom? Shooting and bombing innocent civilians then giving them "free" medical treatment is yet another sign of America's most noble nature.
-------------------- The proof is in the pudding.

Dude, this is a drug forum. If you don't like drug users, or look down on them fucking leave.
I think it's a pretty valid point.

It isn't out of touch with reality. He is right.
Instead of hailing this as a sign of magnificence and freedom and democracy, they should investigate why these 900 innocent men were detained to begin with.

That sounds like dangerous thinking comrade. I'd watch out, the way the herd runs these days isn't conducive for those trying to walk against it.

And for your information it is the magnificience of democracy and due process that they are now released .
Saddam would've just gassed them or lined them up in front of a machinegun.
