Some of these people would just as soon bite your nose off as look at you.  Really.  They can't be taken to the mainland - what if they escaped?  No one would be safe.  

The fact is, we're suddenly dealing with a lot of very dangerous people without the time to properly prepare accomodations and a system for processing them.  This will take time - they will be ok until they can be dealt with on an individual basis.

Incidently, they are being fed a "culturally appropriate" diet.  No porkchops (and sufficient water and calories to stay healthy).  They are even given an extra towel to use as a prayer rug!  I think I would rather be a taliban prisoner of the US than an woman living in taliban controlled Afganistan.
