Detention lottery

Despite being "among the most dangerous, best-trained, vicious killers on the face of the earth" hundreds of Guantánamo detainees have managed to strike it lucky; transferred by American authorities to other countries, ostensibly for continued detention, they have subsequently been set free.

Of course this course of events seems to be rather random and certainly doesn't apply to everyone.

I am so proud to live in a society consisting of civilised, rational men and women under the rule of law.
