Namely, our government obsessed about Nazis and then Communists to such an extent, studying the police states, the tortures, the false imprisonments that eventually they found reason to use the techniques themselves. You grow to admire your enemy because his power reflects on your own. So America began wars of acquisition, both hot wars and economic wars. We needed to be strong to resist the strong Commies, we needed to be cruel at times to counteract their cruelty, we needed to kill the innocent at times to save the rest. All lies, incidentally. People in government do things to make money and to improve their position, not because they're patriots. We became that which we studied, and Gitmo is our Siberia, removed from all laws, a place we send people to vanish. Like the Soviets we have a thousand reasons to suspend law and morality and in the end we become just like the Soviets. Who won the war?
