hat's the difference between a person detained at Gitmo and held without a trial until he dies -- because we're in a long war -- on the orders of Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld, versus the person in this story?

It's pretty much the same as the difference between life imprisonment and the death penalty, with the added twist of no due process of course. In addition, there's a difference (not necessarily one better than the other; just a difference) between state action and individual action.
