| Hicks's dad fears son may die at Guantanamo |
| 2007-01-11 |
| Manolo! Violin! David Hicks's father says he is worried his son will commit suicide if he is not released from Guantanamo Bay soon. See ya next year, pops. I'll bet David will still be with us. And still on the verge of insanity, as usual... Today marks the fifth anniversary of Mr Hicks's detention in the United States military camp on suspicion of being a terrorist. He still has not been charged. Maybe they'll give him a cake? His father, Terry Hicks, says the confinement is taking its toll. He is afraid his son could die at Guantanamo."It's a problem that's always in the back of your mind," he said. "They've had suicides in the Guantanamo Bay. Not enough. "Over the last 12 months his reactions as far as the mental side aren't very good, so we've just got to hope that he's strong enough." I thought this guy was borderline pineapple 3 years ago? Terry Hicks says he hopes his son's case will help unseat the Liberal Party at the next federal election. I hope monkeys holding million dollar bills fly outta my ass... However he says he does not believe an appeal to the Prime Minister today will do any good."I'm sick of making appeals to John Howard ... he doesn't do anything about it," he said. Jeez, I wonder why? "All I can say at this point in time with John Howard is I think David's been there long enough for whatever reason. He's done his time." Jihad lasts forever. David knows the deal. "I think it's time he came back here.If they want to put him through a court system so be it, but I think five years is long enough for anyone." Send him home to Pops in a bag. |

| #10 David Hicks's father says he is worried his son will commit suicide if he is not released from Guantanamo Bay soon. Of course, if he's released, he may still commit suicide---but, at least, he'll be taking some infidels with him. |

| #9 Kudos to all - laughing my butt off reading this latest report on poor daddy Hicks (and not knowing much about him, I do sympathize with his sitcheeation - having a jihadi son's gotta suck). |

| #8 So is the Aussie Jihadi going for the sympathy vote? You have to give dad an "A" for effort, but the problem is that people give this guy not even the behind of Jack the Rat. Crikey! I keep hearing crickets.... |

| #7 Hicks may die at Gitmo? What's the downside? Superfund clean-up costs? |
