I am not going to trust them with my rights. I will not sacrifice any of my rights or other citizen's rights to fight the war on terror. But will I sacrifice the so called rights of someone that willingly joined an organization whose goal is to kill as many innocent women and children as possible? In a New York minute.

The opinion specifically based its holding on findings that the petitioners were (i) acting as agents of the German High Command; (ii) had been trained and were being paid by the German High COmmand; (iii) Entered US soil wearing identifying markings of the German Army; and (iv) concealed those identifying items of clothing upon their entry into the United States. In addition, it was central to the definition of unlawful combatant used in the opinion that the petitioners had pentrated hostile lines and entered the US with the intent to destroy property in furtherance of the German war effort.

Slave reads the NYTs and that makes me suspect he is a liberal spy. Can't trust anyone these days.

In that case, you should execute him. You might want to waterboard him first to find out what he knows.

Then your duty is clear. You must kill him.

Good thinking. I will probably see him this weekend. Maybe if I dress up in a Gulf State military uniform he will give up Penske, Hank or Bilmore as a coconspirator.

Yes they are human. But so are Charles Manson, Osama Bin Ladin and Justin Timberlake. Would I lose any sleep if these guys were tortured slowly to death? I would sleep like a baby.

A good interrogator would call that deflection, and realize he had just struck a soft spot.

While you are slapping slave's belly, can you also find out if he's actually a Mets fan?

Another idiot for Chomskey

Here is proof that only absolute morons give any credence to Noam Chomsky's claims or ideas.
