Last week, at a pretrial hearing at Guantanamo Bay Naval Base in Cuba for Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, a Saudi who is charged with being the mastermind of an attack on the USS Cole in 2000 at which 17 American sailors were killed, the psychologist in charge of interrogating Nashiri described in vivid detail both the modern and the medieval techniques of torture used upon him.
The psychologist was called as a defense witness in order to demonstrate to the court that a good deal of the evidence that prosecutors plan to introduce against Nashiri was obtained directly or indirectly through, or was tainted by, his torture and thus cannot lawfully be used at his trial.

When the WCC starts prosecuting current day Islamist's for torture and/or cruel and unusual treatment in their everyday lives; like chopping off the hands of thieves, tossing gay people off of buildings and buggering children, maybe the judge has a point. Until then, f*ck off judge, you shameless commie.

It would be a shame if he fell down the stairs on the way to trial.
ReplyDelete"black is negative, red is positive... and wet his balls first".
ReplyDeleteBecause we can be absolutely certain they will only do this to the “Bad Guys” right?
DeleteWake up chowder head.
In essence, what DrudgeNap argues is that if the terrorist POS had only been tried in civil court and not military none of this may have happened. Just like Obama bin biden and Holdermybeer argued for but ultimately lost.
ReplyDeleteIs holding political prisoners for months at a time in isolated confinement torture? Asking for a friend.
ReplyDeleteThis is why you don't waste 22 years to bring a terrorist to trial. Get the info you need and quietly drop him in the ocean with 40 lbs of chain.
ReplyDeleteChain is expensive. You can do concrete and a bucket for less than ten.
DeleteOr just drop them from 50,000 ft. Impact with the water will deglove them.
DeleteI no way in any form support what this guy did and would have preferred he was just shot where he was found. On the other side of that coin, it's been US policy to screw around in that part of the world on behalf of corporate America. Every time they bombed a wedding, starved children through sanctions, or otherwise killed innocents, they created another jihadist like this. It's not hard to see where this guy was coming from. That being said, I believe a government that would torture anybody would torture you and yours if it suited their purpose.
ReplyDeleteIt's not just corporate America. It's our appetite for energy combined with our unwillingness to drill here. Other than Hillary's need to show she's as tough as a man, I don't know why we assassinated Gaddafi. Other than learning nothing from Bush's toppling of Saddam, I don't know why Obama was trying to topple Assad.
DeleteThere's more than corporate greed here.
They bombed a US Navy ship you twits. Killed 17 service men and women. I hate it has taken 22 years ---- he needs to fry
DeleteJeff, Mike started off by saying he should have been shot. Personally, I would have preferred they had hanged him. If all we focus on is this terrorist then we will learn nothing moving forward.
DeleteBush the Lesser went to topple Saddam even though he was a keystone to holding Iran and Syria in check. It turned out to be a huge mistake.
Obama not only didn't learn the lesson, but failed at it twice. Once with Assad in Syria and another with Gaddafi in Libya. I would even accept the argument of Obama's third blunder by supporting the coup in the Ukraine that ended up with the a Russians annexing the Crimea.
Yeah, sure, fry this terrorist, but for God sake learn from the mistakes of the past. We don't have time to continually make the same ones over and over again.
Why is that dirtbag still living?
