Poll shows Americans think Guantanamo detainees treated fairly

June 23, 2005 by admin

Powerline links a poll that shows more Americans believe that the suspected terrorists held at Gitmo are being treated better than they deserve than those who think prisoners are treated too harshly. According to a Rasmussen survey, 36% of American thought prisoners are being treated better than they deserve while just 20% thought they were treated unfairly. 34% thought they were treated about right.
I think this is because, unlike some Democratic senators and a few bloggers, Americans see the alleged abuses in the context of how well our military treats prisoners, even those caught on the field of battle bearing arms, but not wearing a military uniform, those cretins who frequently target civilians, including those of their own religion.
