   So slap a tail on this goon and follow him to find some terrorists. Worse things have happened.

   Weren’t known terrorists offered “amnesty” if they repented and stopped trying to kill Americans? Is that the “new law” that gives Bilal “amnesty”?

   Also, why is the GBU-39 now a taboo here?

   Al-Pazeera is likely to take it as a acquittal and put him back on the payroll.

   Of course, there was little evidence against him either.

   Amnesty is essentially a legislative pardon for a criminal act. To qualify for amnesty, one has to have been involved in the commission of a criminal act. Just wondering out loud what crime made him eligible for a pardon.

   Yeah, lgm, you know the AP journalists do what they do just for the good of mankind.
   They would NEVER protect one their own if he did something that might hurt the Bush administration, oh no, that wouldn’t be proper, and all of them are proper folk.

    Wow.

    The man was detained without charge for over a year. The courts reviewed his case and exonorated him. But he should die and go to hell, why exactly? Is there something you know the courts don’t? Perhaps being part of the Associated [with terrorists!] Press is reason enough?

    A study of the photos and examination of other witnesses bore out the account, and military investigators also acknowledged off the record that there was no real basis for charges. But they continued to raise them nonetheless — apparently because they were under relentless pressure to come up with some charges.

    Hey huggybear, you need to read something other than AP propaganda:

    Hussein was detained April 12, 2006 after marines entered his house in Ramadi to establish a temporary observation post and found bomb-making materials, insurgent propaganda and a surveillance photograph of a US military installation.

    No real basis, my ass.

    Won’t be long now before he’s into the time-honored art of fabricating photos for propagandist purposes. Thanks undefined legal system! (The US is the bad guy… again… just like always!)
