Releases From Guantanamo

The Washington Post (I've linked to the story on MSNBC) has a story today about how the Saudis are treating its citizens who have been released from Gulag Guantanamo.

There was this line: "Steven Emerson, a terrorism analyst, said the program is intriguing because it is an alternative to holding detainees at Guantanamo indefinitely. But, he said, there is a "major risk" of releasing former detainees into the general population."

Well, no fucking shit, genius. You hold people in stark conditions, without trial, for over half a decade. You torture some of them. And then, when they are released, you express some concern that they may have taken serious offense about the way they have been treated and that they might want some revenge?
