You really think if we were to denounce torture and rlease all the prisoners (to where i dont know) that those countries and their leaders would #1 Believe us? Or #2 follow suit?
as Obama is finding out now, dealing with these individuals is far harder in reality than in campaign promise world, hence his following along with many of Bush's same arguments in holding the prisoners.
In other countries they regularly imprison or kill political opponents. I'm sure that our treatment of terrorists will have a profound effect on that practice.
