    Please let our captured comrades be treated as true P.O.W's, That they might have safety.
    Please let our captured soldiers not be tortured, not be placed in inhumanely small cells outside of the view of the world, not given any rights, kept from the sun, their family, with no hope of ever being released.

    In short, O Dear lord, please let them be treated as men, and not be shipped off to Guantanamo bay, as Donald Rumsfeld bitches that they were put on television, which is a minor, if that, breach of the Geneva convention, while we torture the fuck out of those fucking sand niggers that fought us in Afghanistan.
