RE:You mean the prisons for tried, convicted and proud-to-confess terrorists - bombers, drugrunners and murderers? Who were even allowed some quasi-military status?

No, the camps where some Irish people were interned WITH NO CHARGES for long periods of time. Also, how about Bloody Friday, when the British paratroopers shot and killed 13 Irish demonstrators. Please don't try to tell me the Brits have a squeaky clean record on human rights. I am from there and know better.

BTW, where was the outcry from the British press about the summary execution of the US soldier who fell out of the helicopter? Was there any? Do you understand why some Americans feel that they don't get fair press in Europe.
