Hegseth: The Only Injection that Gitmo Prisoners Should Get Is the Lethal Injection

EXCERPT:

HEGSETH: "We lost common sense on Guantanamo Bay a long time ago. It was started for the right reasons because these were war criminals who were not following the rules, therefore the Geneva Convention should not be applied to them. Instead we let international lawyers and leftists come in and create all these barriers, giving constitutional rights to detainees, giving them better health care than my guys had. I served there in 2004 and 2005 when there were 500 guys there, when it was a serious place. They still got better health care than we did. So, all of that logic leads someone to say, 'Why not give them the COVID-19 vaccination then? Because that’s who we are as Americans. We're better than that.' When we know that if they had us for ten seconds, they'd be chopping our heads off. The only injection that any Gitmo detainee should be getting today is a lethal injection. Yet our government has lost so much sight of why they hate us, the threat that they brought, what they did to us, the rights that they don't deserve, that this makes sense to somebody. It’s maddening.”
