that has a significantly large contingent to handle an “assault”…Ft. Leavenworth!!

All other prisons are “lightly” defended and are manned (or should the PC term be “personnelled” ?) to keep people in!!

If law enforcement was so “all powerful”, as you seem to think, there would be no need for a fugitives list and the FBI wouldn’t have to spend millions of dollars trying to find “missing persons”.

As far as location…how about 71° 23′ 14″ N, 156° 28′ 44″ W ???

You want to leave??? OK…It’s a long walk!!

CO, or judge, terrorists don’t. The mob will just do the time; you can live pretty well in prison with money and connections. These guys care about the statement of shooting their way in and they don’t really care if all they drag out is hamburger.

In warfare most times you don’t get “proof”. Normal courts won’t allow for methods necessary to extract and correlate information.
Even if information was extracted normal courts won’t allow that as admissible evidence in courts.
What if they were released by the courts due to lack of admissible evidence(due to torture(waterboarding is torture you know..) or some other reason ) and their home countries refused to take them?
Most undercover agents will refuse to testify because that will blow up their cover and expose them to enormous risks.
Everyday they are brought to court they will be at risk of being snatched.

Please don’t assume terrorists are equivalent to Mafia. Mafia is not even close. These are fanatics and they are high value targets. A high security prison complex is nothing compared to Gitmo.

the Mob doesn’t put bombs on buses and fly planes into buildings!

Oh…and the Nob by and large were never picked up on the battlefield out of uniform which according to the Geneva conventions is punishable by summary execution as a spy!

The “Big Tent” analogy isn’t the correct one…the correct one is a MAGNET…we need to be a MAGNET that draws these independents in who are sick and tired of what’s going on in Washington—Fred Thompson

They’ll have unlimited legal help (mostly at our expense) and will demand all sorts of witnesses and documents that the government will be unable or unwilling to produce, so there will be zero chance of conviction.

What then? Well if we release them since they’re innocent, it would be UNFAIR to deport them. It’s not like they entered the country illegally - we brought them here, right?. And since it’s UNFAIR to separate families, if they each have a few wives and a few dozen kids wouldn’t we be obligated to bring them over here too? And then there are the reparations for all the horrible treatment they received. Where does it end?

It’s amazing these genius Democrats haven’t thought of the unintended consequences, but then again they never do.

Used to be a very spooky Navy and Air Force base waaaaay out in the Aleutian Chain. Being sent to Adak used to be the ultimate threat in the military. It’s an island closer to Japan than either mainland Alaska or the continental US. I’ve long advocated using it for Alaska’s maximum security prison; don’t even need officers unless you’re concerned about protecting the prisoners from each other. Set up a secure area for the administrative and medical folks and let the inmates have the run of the place otherwise.

The Arctic Slope gets colder and there is some period of 24 hour darkness up there, but nothing can match the Aleutians for sheer misery; constant wind and rain or snow. Adak is about the same lattitude as Juneau, 58 degrees North, so the winter days get down to about six hours of daylight. The standard line for anywhere out there is that they use an anchor chain for a wind guage; it is bad weather central. Read “The Forgotten War” about the Aleutian Campaign in WWII for some perspective.
