"without charges" maybe, but documents were published per a requirement from the Supreme Court that claims these brothers were:
- members of Al Qaeda
- stayed in Al Qaeda, Taliban or other guest- or safehouses
- took military or terrorist training in Afghanistan
- al Qaeda operatives

Shoot them on the spot.

You participate in an attacking American citizens, you lose your human rights. This is not a criminal activity, it's a war.

@Wim said in Guantanamo detainees released after 20 years - without charge:
@89th Either you charge and prosecute someone, either you release him/her.
Overall I agree. But I'm also aware there's situations that are complex during wartime. The last thing a President wants is to release a prisoner and later find out they helped carry out a terrorist attack.
