well, if i were him, i'de rather get the easy way out , hanging
rather then rotting away in solitary...
he knew he was never, ever getting out
you guys would make sure of that, because the US simply cannot afford a screw up the likes of "We Got him !" and then "woops , He Got Away again !"
he didnt have a chance in hell for anything going his way anymore after he got caught, the only options were :
A trial in Iraq, by Iraqi court, be defiant the whole way( which he was), call for Jihad and try and get those on the outside , to make life difficult for the "occupiers" (which he did), and try and go quickly and with his head up high, sort of looking like he knew what he was doing(he did just that), and ultimately he still controlled the situation, he refused the hood, stood tall, and die a martyr in the eyes of a select few.. ( and i'm sure there's plenty dingbats out there that will actually look at him in that way)
B be tried outside Iraq, by a proper court, with non of his defiant speeches(glass cage, mic=off), lawyers not getting assasinated, and then solitary till he goes completely senile, 15 minutes a day air time, no grass, just a concrete courtyard...Pappillion , without the escapes or friends..
i'll take obvious choice for 400 dollars Alex!
