Which is amazing in itself.

Hopefully, before they start executing, um, whatever these people are, it will make the papers.

Hell, I just don't know anymore, you could be right. Maybe all the congressional Reps and Dems will just say "OK" and go along 'cause the controversy might get them "unreelected". The press will ignore it for fear of retribution and being call the "sissy liberal press". And the man in the street will just figure it can't be that big a deal, offing a few terrorists.

As Ted says, I don't recognize this country anymore.

>Wow, that's really scary. It's not going to play with the American people.

How are they going to know? The American press hasn't picked up this story. Only the BBC has.
