>>>>>I really don't get what your argument is now. If China (and 26 other countries) came to Canada and toppled your government because it was thought to be planning to nuke China (ok maybe not likely) and took over and Mexicans flocked to Canada (or Americans) as civilians (not the military) and started bombing the roads, beheading civilians, shooting at the Chinese, and killing everything and everyone in sight to push the Chinese out of Canada, should the captured Mexicans and Americans be taken back to China for trial in a civilian court? Or should they be held until the end of hostilities?

>>>>I have no idea where that comes from. I simply made the statement that the Americans were the foreigners in Iraq and Afghanistan,not the Iraqis and the Afghans, and you felt that was an unfair statement. You pointed me to a site that says that detainees were born in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other places. I don't understand how that information in itself proves anything at all about who the foreigners are.

Charles Hankey

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin

Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
