Those conditions don't sound to bad to me, especially considering they -don't- have to be that nice to them.
"Amnesty International called for their immediate release. Spokesman Alistair Hodgett said the United States was violating the Convention on the Rights of the Child that states "every child deprived of his or her liberty shall have the right to prompt access to legal and other appropriate assistance."
Hodgett said the United States signed the treaty in 1995, but Johnson said he understood it was never ratified. "
And they -are- proven dangerous--
"The chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff defended the detentions, saying the boys "are very dangerous. Some have killed, some have stated that they're going to kill again.....The Toronto Globe and Mail this week identified a Canadian teenager at Guantanamo Bay as the attacker who threw a grenade that killed a U.S. sergeant in Afghanistan in July."
Still want a kid like that running around american soil, or in Afghanistan free to come back?
