"Evidence" suggests there is a court proceeding. Terrorists are POWs. You don't NEED any evidence.

I thought there had to be "evidence" for there to be at least probable cause to jail (let alone torture) someone for five years. If Angela Merkel had not asked the busH to let him go, he'd still be in jail in Afghanistan. What does that mean? That if a high ranking official intercedes on a "terrorist's" behalf, that he is no longer a "terrorist"? It looks like you've regressed...assuming that's possible.

First They Came for the Jews

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me.

He was talking about the Nazis, but the principle is ALWAYS the same. These people were 'prisoners of war" too.

Where's the evidence dude? Why didn't they convict him? Instead they released him as soon as the German gov't requested it.

"Evidence" suggests there is a court proceeding. Terrorists are POWs. You don't NEED any evidence.


Huh? What kind of answer is that? You think they can claim someone is a terrorist without any evidence, and then hold and torture him for five years just for the hell of it. Do you have a soul?

Oh what do you care?

I don't, at all. If a few of these crazies get jailed in error for five or ten years, I really could care less. It is bound to happen when your buddies attack the United States. Jail 'em first, ask questions later.


Z was too kind.....you're the spawn of the devil.
