The countries the Guantanamo guys come from don't want them back. Every time we sent some back (we have), they went right back to local terrorism or ended up in prison again.
I'm sorry, but the idea that the USA is torturing people, but Russia isn't, because the USA admits to it and Russia doesn't, is incredibly childish. The West is the only culture where you save face by confessing, and where there are activist journalists and lawyers uncovering everything and publishing it. That doesn't mean they're the only ones who ever do anything wrong, it means they're the only ones with at least the remnants of a free press and civil rights.
Nobody knows what is going on in Russia. Even the Russians in Russia don't know.
