What about those who are American citizens?

Are you saying there were American citizens held in Guantanamo that were innocent?

No ma'am... I wasn't.

The post you quoted does ask about those who were innocent but held at Guantanamo for years.

The second question is asking DB if his thoughts are any different for an American Citizen.
