Okay, the GITMO guys are so dangerous, don't release them, transfer them:
Put them in a normal prison on American soil. Split them all up, and put them all around the nation in different prisons. That way they won't be able to organize an attack or breakout.

This would call their bluff because they would have to let them be seen by normal prison guards and it is likely that it would get out if they tortured these fellas.

They never want to close GITMO, because "they don't want these guys back in circulation." Don't put them back into circulation, just move them to American soil.

3. Precisely! Why isn't this nation clamoring for trials?
Trials used to be what made us different from fascist whimsical torturing thugs...

4. They're never going to do that...
we've been trying to get them trials for almost four years. It hasn't worked. They aren't going to do the right thing.

They always say they can't be released because they are "dangerous terrorists," so just transfer them. What can they say to rebut that? Nothing.

6. Gitmo residents are there with no filed charges against them
Maybe they looked wrong at a bushbot.
