In protest of being held for over a decade without trial or charges, prisoners at Guantanamo Bay have been holding a hunger strike--one prisoner is down to 77 pounds.
To stop the upheavel, the prison policy has been to force-feed inmates by strapping them down and inserting a feeding tube through their nostrils. In light of this peculiar situation it can be asked, should these prisoners of a war without geographic or temporal limit be given a trial, or at the least, charges?
