I see that some of the prisoners at Guantanamo are on a hunger strike. It appears to be at the point that the military has taken to force feeding them.
I would not force feed them. I would call in the International Red Cross to make sure they were monitored and then I would let them starve themselves to death. Let them have what they want.
As I heard this I was thinking. It doesn’t appear that Islam has much to offer these people. I think that if these prisoners where Chirstians as devote as these muslims claim to be, they would not try to comit suicide.
It would also appear that the terrorists’ hate is not enough to sustain them.
I am reminded of Paul in the Bible. At one point he is imprisoned and chained to two Roman guards. I think he was confined for at least a couple of years. Instead of railing against the inequity of the situation, he took the time to try to convert the guards. My Bibical knowledge is not good enough to remember if he was successful or not. I suspect he was.
If the terrorists were really as devote as they claim, then why don’t they attempt to convert the guard to Islam. Instead there have been recorded incidents of them attacking the guards.
I conclude that either the terrorists at Guantanamo are not really that devote or their religion is inadequate to their situation.
