I expect some current detainees to be prosecuted and some to be freed, as they have been. I also expect the next President will continue to detain some enemy combatants without trial, wherever that may be.
Time will tell, my friend. Certainly it does not bode well if none of them have been prosecuted thus far...

Thanks for the info on the candidates btw.

The art of war is of vital importance to the State. It is a matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence it is a subject of inquiry which can on no account be neglected
