because they might get slapped in the face or have their religious beliefs offended.
Im fairly confident that getting slapped in the face and/or having one's religious beliefs be offended is the LEAST of what is being done to those prisoners. Especially the ones who died - its not often that a number of prisoners at ANY american detention facility just suddenly and inexplicably die.
Its also not fair to the ACLU, Red Cross, or Amnesty Int'l to be critized over matters such as this, because without them, who would be out helping the millions of impovershed and displaced and starving and ill and devastated and endangered peoples of the world? Sending money helps, yes, but it doesn't do anything unless these organizations are there to use it in constructive, organized, tangible ways.
