before you vote..bear in mind that the conditions in both places named below are identical...the difference is that in one you will be killed or allowed to die..whereas in the other those conditions could be maintained indefinitely (and a conscious effort made to do so)...

I don't agree that they are the same, as nothing is ever the same.
However it is absouloutly TRUE, that many in guantanimo have attempted to kill themselves through starvation and been force fed through tubes inserted into thier stomaches...(while conscience)... in an effort to keep them alive.
It's my opinion that this is done so that the comparison cannot be made between THIS "prison" camp, and those of the nazi's...
Some of these people...(kept without trial or oversight of any reasonable kind)...LONG for death...but are FORCED to stay alive, without trial and without hope...
SHAME ON EVERYONE who lets this sort of brutality take place in modern society.
The attitude that is prevalent in American today society is the EXACT attitude that led to a regime such as Hitlers to exist in the first place...
Think about it, and do the research, please...

Prajna, answer a question honestly for me, please.
If the authorities at Guantanamo were to let prisoners who choose to stop eating starve themselves to death, would you denounce or applaud their (the authorities, that is) decision?

Anna, this might be your worst thread, and that's saying a lot.
I've read a bit about both places. Neither is a haven, for sure. But Auschwitz is in an entirely different league of human suffering.
The only way in which gitmo could possibly be considered worse is the isolation factor. Truly cruel punishment.

Hey Phred,
It's a good point.
I know where you're going with this...and you know as well as I do that if any HAD starved themselves to death, I would be the first person on this board to scream bloody murder about it...
However, I think it's a lose-lose situation...
I don't object to keeping these people there, only to the WAY that they are kept there.
I have that ability to "put myself in their shoes", an emotion called compassion...and it's telling me that it is just WRONG to cage another human being without presenting some sort of evidence of their wrongdoing to the public in general...
It's not that I don't believe in punishment for criminal acts, it's that I believe that "human rights" are being attacked by this venture.
As an American under your own constitution, you should be an example to the entire WORLD on how people SHOULD act toward each other, you know, LIBERTY, JUSTICE, FREEDOM, RIGHTS TO A FAIR TRIAL BY PEERS... all that high moral stuff that you preach...
If you guys actually practiced what you preached then I wouldn't even care about the issue. Because I would be content that these people had been tried on evidence by their peers and were guilty of some crime.
Truth is though, the Americans have not extended the AWESOME principals behind the constitution to the situation in Guantanamo, and have instead chosen to treat other HUMAN BEINGS like animals...
My GOD will not let this injustice sit well on my conscience...
So no I would not be happy either way...
As long as I can imagine even a possibility of an innocent man, crying over his son or daughter that he misses, in a prison with no trials or hope, then I will always think that those who jail him are evil...
I like to think it's because I am a compassionate human being...

you dont know that any more than i do...ill repeat my earlier post ..there is not enough information coming out of gunatanamo to prove or disprove your statement...however..auschwitz was the classic example of the "not enough information" scenario..and evidence from abu ghraib and other sites points in this direction...

Are you suggesting that we don't know whether or not millions of Arabs are being taken from their homes, poisoned, and then buried in mass graves?

Thanks for fixing the poll... I understand this one. 
It is an incorrect claim that conditions within guantanamo and auschwitz are identical. Because of this, the poll is fairly meaningless. However, if I had to make a choice, I would choose guantanamo over aushwitz without hesitation.

yeah, maybe guantanamo bay is secretly as bad as auschwitz. maybe there's a whole secret underground area hidden from outside eyes where prisoners are starved, worked, and frozen to death, where they are subjected to cruel and bizarre medical experiments. maybe they are constantly surrounded by death. maybe there is even a secret genocide program there.
is there any evidence to support such notions? if yes, let's have it. if no, why do you believe this to be the case anyway? do you normally believe things for which there is not a shred of evidence?
