Since we do seem to have a bit of a consensus (ThatLeftTurnInABQ, Hogan, RobW, etc.) developing here that being detained in Gitmo is an plausible (though even then, not laudable) reason for someone to turn to terrorism against the United States, I'm surprised that no one seems to be questioning the potential application of the term 'returning' to former detainees who engage in violent acts of terrorism because of their experience in Gitmo, not despite it. Isn't it worth tracking or at least distinguishing how many people are radicalized by the experience who weren't before? (And the fact that there's probably going to be a significant number, that we subjected not just the guilty but also the innocent to the type of treatment that no one should ever experience at our hands just makes me want to hurl.) That being said, I don't the Pentagon employees responsible for the report will go for such subtleties until they restrict themselves to considering violent acts as candidates for terrorist acts.
