Gitmo suicides

Three of 'em:

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Three detainees at Guantanamo Bay apparently committed suicide amid protests of the U.S. military prison by inmates, the Defense Department said Saturday. They were the first reported deaths at the detention center for suspected terrorists.

"The first reported deaths" of "suspected terrorists." We need to close that place and put those people on trial if we've got any good evidence against them. Now that these three are dead, there's no reason not to release what they did to get there.

UPDATE: Reuters:

Navy Rear Adm. Harry Harris, commander of Guantanamo, told a news conference the suicides were an act of warfare. "They are smart. They are creative, they are committed. They have no regard for life, neither ours nor their own. I believe this was not an act of desperation, but an act of asymmetrical warfare waged against us," Harris said.

Let's hope al-Qaida and all our other enemies embrace this tactic. It would make winning the so-called "war on terrorism" so much quicker and easier.
