Hello Pot, I'm Kettle

from the New York Times:

"A long-running effort by the Bush administration to send home many of the terror suspects held at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, has been stymied in part because of concern among United States officials that the prisoners may not be treated humanely by their own governments, officials said."

Are you kidding me with this? Illegally detained with no legal representation, interrogated with questionable tactics, likely physically abused, reclassified from prisoner of war to enemy combatant to tiptoe around the Geneva Convention, and now once determined to have no more "intelligence value" you're concerned that their home country will treat them unfairly?
