#2 Aw, and now he can go from three squares and hot and cold running ZamZam water to the tender mercies of a Pak prison. Too bad.

Thanks for the link, Chenter.

#3 The following primary factors favor release or transfer:
The detainee stated he is an honest businessman and has never received money on behalf of the Taliban or al Qaida or any other groups.

He stated that the money received was from families from outside that country trying to get money on behalf of the Taliban or al Qaida or any other groups.

He stated that the money received was from families from outside that country trying to get money to support their families in Afghanistan.

The detainee has no knowledge of money transfers outside the three hawallas owned by his family in the United Arab Emirates, Miram Shah, Pakistan, and Bermal, Afghanistan.

The detainee claims all he and his brothers were trying to accomplish was to make an honest living and provide for their families.

Just a simple farm boy, trying to make a living out of the family hawallas.

#4 Someone believed his bullshit that he was just a piano player in the whorehouse. "Catch and release" should be replaced by kill on the battlefield or kill and release the body for pig slop.

#5 Or, JohnQC, he was turned and is one of ours. Doubtful, I know but he does look a little bit like Tom Cruise.

#6 It's blatantly obvious that this Libyan national is not Gitmo Detainee 826, who is an Afghani. Here is a long list of people named Abdul Salaam. The fact-checking and self-criticism here seems to be lacking.

I dunno, we ran your UN ass-kissing self off before didn't we? Happy 4th!

#8 My memory is a bit blurry from being a habitual drunken bachelor, so help me out here. Was he run out on a rail or tarred and feathered? I quite honestly can't recall.

#9 a hissy fit

#10 Makes sense. People who think they're better than everyone else tend to have those.

#11 This misidentification is obvious immediately to anyone who bothers to look at the link, but no Rantburgers bother to correct it, because they are too busy making inane comments. When an outsider corrects it, they attack him.

#12 not an attack, just recalling history. G'nite Mike - enjoy life

#13 I for one, am glad Spike was here to tell us about ourselves.

#14 *sigh* Good catch, Mike Sylwester. What a pity you had to come charging in with residual attitude, instead of starting afresh. Happy Fourth of July, anyway -- may the coming year be happier for you, your wife, and your lovely daughter.
