PLEA DEAL FOR JIHADI KILLER OF SPECIAL FORCES MEDIC

Canadian "Human Rights" lawyers (i.e. al Qaeda sympathizers) at Guantanamo are hard at work to get a plea deal for a Canadian-born jihadi who killed US Special Forces medic in Afghanistan.

Khadr, who was 15 when he was captured following the firefight in Afghanistan in 2002, was originally scheduled to go on trial Monday at the U.S. base in Cuba. He faces war crimes charges that include murder for allegedly throwing a grenade that killed Army Sergeant First Class Christopher Speer, a Special Forces medic from Albuquerque, New Mexico. If convicted, he faces a maximum life sentence.

The Khadr case is problematic for the U.S. because of his age and the fact that his father, who was killed in 2003, had close ties to senior al-Qaida leaders. His lawyers and human rights groups say Khadr was a child soldier, essentially brainwashed by his family, who should be sent home and rehabilitated.

There is no rehabilitation for this piece of scum - release would only turn him into an al Qaeda hero; a propaganda coup for the enemy.

Unlike most war crimes cases at Guantanamo, Khadr's case involves specific American victims.


STORMBRINGER SAYS:

Gotta love those bleeding heart liberals - like most uninformed civilian journalists, they keep regarding the military tribunals at Guantanamo as comparable somehow to a civilian court of law.

Heads up, Civvie Street: according to the Law of Land Warfare, as codified by the Hague and Geneva Conventions (NOT signed by the United States, by the way) a military tribunal requires (at a minimum) a commissioned officer reads the charges against the accused before sentencing. The sentence - usually death by firing squad or hanging - may be carried out immediately, as required by military necessity.

In reality, this drumhead tribunal kind of military justice is extremely rare - even going back in history. But just to bring you up to speed - in a court martial THERE IS NO JURY.

There is a panel of officers, and sometimes if an enlisted man is being tried, a senior non-com may be present. This panel takes the role of judge AND jury. Because the tribunals at Guantanamo exist in an almost-peacetime environment, and because of the political sensitivities of the situation, the military goes as far out as possible to make the tribunals LOOK LIKE a civilian court of law.

Fact of the matter is all they're required to do - by International Law of Land Warfare - is read the accused the charges, then say, "Take him out back and shoot him!"

Which in this case would be appropriate.

All I know is this Khadr cat better HOPE he doesn't get released, because there's some HIGHLY PISSED OFF Green Berets out there - I know, I'm one of them.

WHAT WOULD PATTON SAY

I think this is how General George S. Patton would sum things up . . . and then catch Holy Hell from Ike.

He sure had a unique way of expressing his thoughts.



ATTENTION!

To ALL those whining, panty-waisted, pathetic Citizens, it's time for a little refresher course on exactly why we Americans occasionally have to fight wars to keep this nation great:




See if you can tear yourself away from your "Reality" TV and Starbucks for a minute, pull your head out of your ass - and LISTEN UP!!





Abu Ghraib, and Guantanamo are not "torture" or an "atrocity". This is the kind of thing frat boys, sorority girls, and academy cadets do every year. A little fun at someone else's expense. Certainly no reason to wring your hands or get your panties in a wad.

GOT THAT ? ? ?





THIS is an ATROCITY ! ! !








So Was THIS ! ! !




WHICH PART DON'T YOU GET?




Islam a peaceful religion??? MY ASS!

Millions of these warped misled sons-of-bitches are plotting, as we speak, to destroy our country and our way of life any way they can. Some of them are here among us now.

They don't want to convert you and don't want to rule you. They believe you are a vile infestation of Allah's paradise. They don't give a shit how "progressive" you are, how peace-loving you are, or how much you sympathize with their cause.

They want your ass dead, and they think it is God's will for them to do it.

Some think if we give them a hug or listen to them, then they'll like us, and if you agree?

Then you are a pathetic dumb ass!

If they manage to get their hands on a nuke, chemical agents, or even some anthrax - you will wish to God we had hunted them down and killed THEM while we had the chance.

How many more Americans must be beheaded?? You may never get another chance!

NOW GET OFF YOUR SORRY ASS


DISMISSED!

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot?


This guy is in Yemen stirring up a stink:

Report: Radical Imam Detained at JFK Airport in 2002






We're hearing stories of detainees going back to their old habits:

More former Guantanamo detainees returning to militant activity, Pentagon says
A new Pentagon report puts the recidivism rate at 1 in 5 detainees freed from the U.S. prison, up from 14% in the last accounting.



What may be the most unusual manifestation of Stockholm Syndrome ever seen, this cat meets with and apologizes to former detainees :





Guantanamo Guard Reunited with Ex-Inmates







Now juxtapose all of the above, with the following clip:








Yes, I realize not all detainees are terrorist nor will all of them revert to it - but WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT ? ? ?

KOW-TOW

This is how bad it's gotten:

WASHINGTON (AP) - Powerful U.S. lawmakers honored the Dalai Lama with a human rights award Tuesday even as President Barack Obama faced harsh criticism for delaying a meeting with the exiled Tibetan Buddhist spiritual leader.

14th Dalai Lama Tenzin_Gyatzo, religious leader of Tibetan Buddhists and political refugee from Communist China.

The Dalai Lama and Obama will not meet until after Obama visits Chinese President Hu Jintao in Beijing in November. China reviles the Dalai Lama and pressures foreign governments not to meet with him. The Obama administration, which needs Chinese support for crucial foreign policy, economic and environmental goals, wants to establish friendly ties between Hu and Obama during next month's visit.

This, combined on top of last weeks event:







New York's Empire State Building was bathed in red and yellow lights Friday 2 Oct 2009 in honor of communist China's 60th anniversary. Human Rights Watch, which has offices in the building, voiced objections: "This date commemorates the rule of the Chinese Communist Party, a political entity that is responsible historically for many grave violations of human rights"




We cannot upset the ChiComs - we need them to finance our several-trillion dollar national debt. And so we witness Barack Hussein Obama, the man who won the Presidency of the United States by railing against the human rights abuses of the Bush Administration, who promised to close the detainment facility at Guantanamo, kowtowing to the single greatest violator of human rights on the planet: Communist China.

Let me see if I got this straight: we have a prison facility full of religious fanatics who have been rolled up and detained on the battlefield while they were in the process or already guilty of killing of innocent men, women and children - self-admitted terrorists whose stated goals are to kill and maim as many Christians and Jews possible in the most horrific manner imaginable.



That's no good - we have to let these poor wretches out of there, because their human rights have been violated.

In the mean time, you've got a country that brutally oppresses it's own citizens for crimes ranging from freedom of speech to of following their own religion - the penalty for possessing a Christian Bible in Red China is 12 years imprisonment - and we turn a blind eye to this, we show respect to their national holiday and reject meeting with oppressed individuals from China because . . . we need their money ? ? ?



I've got only one question: "How do I explain this to my kids?"
