Probable cause: keeping mass round up of "inconvenient citizens" illegal since 1776

No evidence to convict 10,000 detainees– U.S. commander

BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: U.S. forces in Iraq have detained 10,000 prisoners without evidence of their wrongdoing, a U.S. detention centers in Iraq commander said on Monday.

So we just rounded up over 10,000 people, or the population of most small towns and detained them. Detained of course because then we can torture them - there are rules about the treatment of prisoners which is why we call them detainees - to get around these rules.

You see, martial law is "bad" because they don't need things like "probable cause."

I am am ashamed and mortified at the actions of my country. To the people of Iraq: I am so freaking sorry my government are such assbags.

You can not be responsible for a government you didn't create and don't support, unless you pay taxes!
