Gitmo Torture
 
"I am not making this up. This is a 21-year-old that went to Guantanamo at 16 because he threw a hand grenade and killed a U.S. soldier and this is the audio just released at Guantanamo. It is not for the fainthearted. I think I've given it enough warning. Here it is."

I didn't see or hear any torture at all in the video? They even offered him a hamburger, and he was drinking sodas. Where is the torture supposed to come in at?

You are obviously a cold hearted infidel. Did you net hear the snivelling of this pure hearted freedom fighter?

m21sniper 07-16-2008 12:42 PM

Well i just recently learned i'm also a marxist, so i guess nothing should surprise me about me.

:D

Tobra 07-16-2008 12:49 PM

socialist, not marxist ;)

they put bacon on his cheeseburger perhaps

BeyGon 07-16-2008 01:27 PM

I think those people in GitMo should have been allowed to collect their virgins already. They deserve them.

Dammit, that was supposed to be secret!

Have to laugh. When I was based in Saudi Arabia, one of the local Muslims and I got to be fairly good friends. When he saw that the commisary was having BBQ ribs many of the times he asked me to bring him some. At first I hassled him asking him about the Moslem religion not letting him eat pork. He finally said "Mohammed did not have a refrigerator, and besides they taste too good to not enjoy" so I gave in.

It was part of our torture that we subjected the locals to ... showing them what they were missing by living in that hell hole.

Hulk Hogan's son?

Aurel 07-16-2008 02:32 PM

They used baconboarding on the poor fellow. This is an especially cruel variant of waterboarding, where the wet towel is replaced by a large greasy piece of bacon.

Didn't open it but the same story was on the ABC news last night. I like the part where he says is eyes and feet are gone.

May his armpits be infested with the fleas of a 1,000 camels & his virgins have genital herpes.

Being captured during wartime only makes you a hero. By your own standards.

You are listening to the future republican nominee of (insert middle eastern country here).

In 60 years he will be fit.

Now that's funny.

RANDY P 07-16-2008 06:59 PM

...and riding a skateboard (still) as a grown, bald---


eeh, refrain from comment.

dipso 07-16-2008 07:22 PM

Oh, I am far from grown. I am only in my 40's. Still have a lot more on my plate.

Go take a nap old buddy.

RANDY P 07-16-2008 07:36 PM

Or in the bowl in your case. you're in your 40's? I'm sure you fool a lot of people- probably more than you should.

What makes this kid a terror suspect vs a prisoner of war who killed US troops? What were the rules in Vietnam, Korea or WWII? Just wondering why he is in prison without hope of ever getting or why didn't they just shoot him after he threw the grenade?

Bowl? current terminology, Im impressed. Or in the pool, or in the half pipe, or in the ditch.

Age is just a number my friend, sorry.

RANDY P 07-16-2008 08:15 PM

I used to ride myself. Over 20 years ago.

Age is a number, good observation. it's also a barometer of maturity that's accepted by western culture.

18 you can vote.

21 you can buy booze

40 you're supposed to be done with skateboards, smoking pot, all that stuff you're into.

andrew15 07-16-2008 08:34 PM

If everyone is so sure these guys are terrorists, why not try them and punish them accordingly? This guy was taken at age 15 and locked up for the last 6 years with no trial. In regards to his eyes / feet 'being gone' - he is blind in one eye, has reduced vision in the other and had both ankles broken.

I can't really condone his actions, but at least give him a trial and if found guilty, punish accordingly.

No Dick, a misguided child travelling thousands of miles to kill infidels, managing to blow one up, get caught and then cry when not promptly returned to his mother is not a comparable situation.

he fooled me, I thought he was much younger until I saw the pics

hang on a second with that being done with all that stuff when you turn 40 though, I was always into bicycles as a kid, still am. Can't do everything like when I was 20, but I still like to try occasionally

I believe he is regarded as an enemy combatant. In WW II, how many German, Italian and Japanese prisoners did we release before the war ended?

We were going to try them at military tribunals until Justice Kennedy got a bug in his butt, or ear, someplace

K. Roman 07-16-2008 09:54 PM

They did shoot him...check the link, but it's not for the faint of heart.
