Recently it has been announced that five so-called 'terror suspects' are being released in the next few weeks from the notorious American prison in Guantanamo Bay.
They are amongst more than 660 suspects who have been held at the US base in Cuba for two years without trial.
They were suspected of being al Qaeda or Taleban fighters, or supporters, but have had no evidence brought against them after two years of imprisonment.
Even the British home secretary David Blunkett and the US Major General Geoffrey Miller have stated that these men do not pose any threat to Western security.
Despite all of this, the suspects could still face charges in UK courts under anti-terrorism laws.
Until now, ministers have said that the detainees would either face trial before the US military tribunals or return home. Greg Powell, the solicitor for one of the men, told BBC news that, "The government knows very well these men were never any kind of security risk, and the Americans have said they pose no threat to the United States".
Surely if anything exposes the fallacy of Western 'justice' it is the arrest and treatment of these prisoners.
To date no factual evidence has been presented as it is clear that they were arrested on mere suspicion. One of the suspects was even arrested in Pakistan, far away from the war.
Here is the evidence of the hypocrisy of liberal-democracy, the champions of human rights and civil liberties.
The USA and Britain are at the forefront of demanding these values from the Muslim world, when they themselves do not adhere to them.
The Muslim Ummah must remain wary of the secular states and recognise that they will go to any lengths to maintain their domination, even at the expense of their own principles and values.
