According to the US gov the prisoners at Guantanamo are the worst of the worst. That's why Obama wanted to transfer them all to a stateside supermax. He couldn't do that so he left them in place.
Is it your argument that a 16 yr-old couldn't be trained to be a soldier? Or that a 16 yr-old is incompetent to understand the consequences of his actions?
