It will be interesting to see what they do with them.

If they're considered POWs, then they can be held until the end of the war. But which war and where will they hold them?

If they're classified as criminals and put in a Federal prison, then the other prisoners will have at them. The prisons aren't set up to segregate one group from another.

Since there's so much money to pass around, maybe they'll build a new prison somewhere for them. But what will they charge them with?

If Obama lets them go, there will be outrage from every corner. I think people still have the capacity to remember 9/11. And where is he going to let them go? In this country? It will turn people against every Muslim because they won't know who the terrorists are. What other country is going to accept them? Somalia? Yemen? Pakistan? Afghanistan? Iraq? Iran, Ireland?

I think he was a little premature with this. Or maybe he made the announcement and nothing will happen and people will forget. Yeah, that's it.
