How do you know that these guys were actually resisting or fighting or anything when they were caught in a "war" in Afghanistan, where they (supposedly) lived, and the coalition attacked?

If it can be shown that they where not, or even if the evidence leads to the conclusion that they where not. (Resisting in this case can include anyone who was a member of or active supporter of the fighters, not just people who fire bullets or RPG rounds, or planted bombs.)

One of the people here who says we should close Gitmo points to data that say 18% of the people at Gitmo have no history of violence against the US or our allies, and no evidence of solid ties to Al Qaida or the Taliban. I have no idea how they determined that but if its true, fine let the 18% go. But closing Gitmo implies something like letting 100% go.
