“in recent weeks, there have continued to be reckless, anti-American comments made by some who even work in this very Capitol building. The truth has been emerging more recently of our soldiers' incredibly hospitable treatment of our enemies. Though there is still some rhetoric denouncing our amazingly humane treatment of combatants, others have begun to change their comments, congratulating our servicemembers on their progress since they were called Nazis and cruel. The fact is, our treatment has not had to progress. Our servicemembers were never Nazis, were not cruel. Their humane treatment of evil combatants who throw urine and fecal matter or semen and spit on them has been unparalleled in combatant history. The constant demonizing of our servicemembers has been played and replayed by our enemies abroad and has done more damage to us, our servicemembers, and our reputation than any isolated members themselves may have done. Some liberals have worried about what might happen in the future to American POWs because of our treatment at Guantanamo. Let me give a quick reminder. They killed thousands of people on 9/11, innocent people. They took people they captured and took hostage, put them on their knees with blindfolds, and sawed and cut off their heads. These are not nice people. They have not been nice before anybody ever heard of Guantanamo. Quit beating yourselves up.…”
