I am sorry but I would not force feed them. While I am not in favor of War I am student of History.  Moselms have been trying to kill Catholics, Jєωs, and everyone else around them since its founding by Mohammed.

That is true to some degree, but a lot of the Muslims at Guantanamo were rounded up, essentially abducted from their homes and lands, and imprisoned over a LIE - a pretext; and subjected to torture, both physical and psychological. The latter being relentless since it is deemed "not abuse" by the Judaic War Hawks manipulating U.S. foreign policy. And Jєωs have as much blood on their hands, regarding their treatment to Palestinians and their push for wars under manufactured pretexts, as Muslims do acting like sub-monkeys, which is an inherited spiritual deficit of false prophet Muhammad.

But a hunger "strike" does not address any of these issues.  I think it is the least effective and most futile of efforts because most people will say "fine, don't eat, see if I care."  End of issue.

My comment is not about a hunger strike being a solution. I'm just calling out the evils of putting them in Guantanamo in the first place. The hunger strike is just consequential, and rather secondary to the real issue.

Obviously, your use of red herrings, such as "Arab prisons are much worse than Guantanamo", has nothing to do with the immoral act of the U.S. abducting Muslims from their homes and lands over a lie and fαℓѕє fℓαg attack, which in effect, drives huge profits for the military industrial complex, among other reason...

Obviously, you assume and prejudge too much because I have personally been around a lot of Muslims, especially in college. I used to play soccer with them all the time, but even outside of the school I attended, I still knew other Muslims quite well. I have also read parts of the Koran for academic purposes.

Obviously, you fail to differentiate wartime based off an imminent threat or being attacked first, which gives a nation the right to defend themselves, and wartime based off a pretext - a fαℓѕє fℓαg attack. The is such an fundamental distinction you still fail to understand.

Obviously, you injecting libertarianism into the discussion is another red herring. However, since you seem to be fixated on my libertarianism, and you are not really interested in the real topic at hand on this thread, rather, the impetus for you commenting seems to be a personal criticism of me stemming from my political persuasion, for the record, I'm not a libertarian per say for the following reasons:  1)  I believe abortion should be banned by Constitutional Amendment, but since this is not possible, power should be given to the states to prohibit abortion, which in effect, would reduce, the number of abortions nationwide. 2) ALL pornography should banned, and stiff fines and even imprisonment should be rendered to producers and distributors of this evil destroyer of the individual, family and society. 3) I only believe in free trade INSIDE a nation, and I reject corporations being able to shut down factories in the U.S. and move them overseas to employ fractionally payed slave labor. There are some other reasons why I'm not strictly libertarian, too...

Logical fallacy. If you know what it means, then why are you attempting to conflate the massive profits incurred by military hardware, munitions, weapons, etc., companies such a Boeing, General Dynamic, Raytheon, etc., with the wars' negative consequences such as higher taxes and indebtedness bestowed on average American people? The MIC is not negatively effected by these costs and higher taxes, rather, it's how they make their livelihood.

and the DoD really wanted to keep the U.S. safe from Muslim terrorists, they would simply end immigration of Muslims from regions historically "hostile" to the U.S., and prohibit visas to the same people so they cannot travel here. There is the 99.9 percent of the "Muslim terrorist threat" solved, right there!

What about U.S. installations in the Middle East and abroad? We need to pull out - NOW. Most of the U.S. presence in foreign lands needs to end immediately. This is another solution to preventing attacks on the U.S.; and it would save taxpayers exponential dollars.

Obsession?    Perhaps you are obsessed with New Deal programs of FDR and other sugar coated names of socialism and bgovernment intrusions on the lives of people?

Keep U.S. jobs here by law. Prevent outsourcing and closing of factories by traitorous, mammon worshiping corporations; other than that, for the most part, there should be no govt intrusion, except regarding safety for workers or when there is a detriment to public health (such as Monsanto's GMOs). I believe there SHOULD BE mandatory labeling on GMO "food".

Let freedom reign; and keep it American and Christian, baby!!  :dancing:

There should NOT have been any bailouts for the Big 3 auto makers. NONE...ZILCH...

then why don't they also bail out the huge numbers of post graduates who have incurred large student loan debt? If these bailouts are about helping actual common people, then why not student loan forgiveness?

No doubt Hollywood and Disney need to be fumigated, but I'm not sure govt can dictate what comes out of these two cesspools. First, you would need to fumigate the 3 Branches of govt before starting with Hollywierd. Morality must be instilled by families, and taught and defended by the Church and proper catechesis. I'm not sure I would want a central, God-less, governing authority dictating what is "morally acceptable", but I would still be open to ideas and its possibility because Hollywood is definitely a problem. TV has too much influence on peoples' minds, and that is very dangerous.
