You'd think the fact that these men dropped massive numbers of bombs on North Vietnam had nothing to do with the way they were treated.

If the 9/11 hijackers had somehow survived and been captured, the treatment this country would have inflicted on them would have been indistinguishable from what was done in the Hanoi Hilton.

Let's face it...there is no moral difference between what the North Vietnamese did to these man and what we've done to massive numbers of supposed "enemy combatants"- many of which our rulers know are personally innocent of any wrongdoing- at "Gitmo".
