US releasing enemy operatives rather than sending them to Gitmo Posted: 29 Jun 2011 08:08 AM PDT Washington Post: The top military official involved in the raid that killed Osama bin Laden said Tuesday that the Obama administration has no clear plan for handling suspected terrorist leaders if they are caught alive outside a war zone. Vice Adm. William H. McRaven told a Senate panel that contingency plans for detaining terrorism suspects are developed on an ad hoc basis and approved by the White House, but that there are no set rules. "That is always a difficult issue for us," he testified. "No two cases seem to be alike." In response to senators' questions, McRaven said that "in many cases" suspects captured in secret operations by Navy SEALs or the Army's Delta Force are taken to a U.S. Navy ship until they can be tried in a U.S. court or transferred to the custody of an allied country. But if neither option turns out to be feasible, the prisoner is ultimately let go, he said. "If we can't do either one of those, then we will release that individual," McRaven said in response to a question from Sen. Lindsey O. Graham (R-S.C.). "I mean, that becomes the unenviable option, but it is an option." ... Asked by Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.) whether Guantanamo Bay is "still off the table" as a place to detain and interrogate terrorism suspects for long periods, McRaven replied: "As far as I understand it, it is, yes, ma'am." ... I think sending them to Gitmo is the best course. It is certainly better than releasing them so they can go on killing.
