Guantanamo British, Australian Inmates to Be Freed

Australians and British to be handed back to Govs, good news I guess

Four remaining Britons and an Australian being held at Guantanamo Bay will be released soon, officials said Tuesday, amid reports the number of prisoners at the U.S. military base would be radically reduced. A lawyer acting for two of the Britons told Reuters all the British detainees would be released within weeks. "The Foreign Office has confirmed to me that the four of them will be coming back within the next few weeks," human rights lawyer Louise Christian said.

Atrios is a 'famous' lefty us blogger. I don't see the attraction but his commenteers are absolutely class. I imagine them as a bunch of speedfreak trannies obsessing about revolting or being shipped away to concentration camps as the society around them turns malignant. Why don't these bloggers archive their comment sections?

Pee in the punch bowl
Egg the limousine
This is the worst administration
We have ever seen

Nothing ever shames them
No lie can cause a blush
From Bush's ass the line's direct
To Hannity and Rush

Our flag is full of shit stains
Our honor's in the can
Is there not left one honest judge
To rid us of this man?

We tried to vote him out of there
But Diebold owns the box
The truth is what they say it is
The Moonie Times and Fox

The media won't save us
The war cannot be won
Democracy does not flow from
the barrel of a gun.

And yet we blog
And comment
Link and cut and paste and hope
of the day when madness falls away
and hanging on a rope
is the corpse of the last neo-con
who led us down this path
and turned the world's respect
into unforgiving wrath.

I think I'll stop now, this gets to be too easy somedays.

the more I read the headline I put the more it bugs me... I should have said released by to their own governments... but what happens to them then do they get released at home ( I think most have released under servere restrictions ?) .. do they still face charges... have any of the Britons gone from Guantanemo to Belmarsh etc?
