File under: al-Qaeda in Arabia

#1 Evidence was too old? Is that because the trial was delayed by four years by legal ... buffalo chips?

#2 Hasan will probably bring all the jihad motive evidence in himself when he testifies.

#3 Makes one think the trial is politically rigged, doesn't it?

#4 Remember if it's not 'Jihadi', then it's just work place violence (aka going Postal). I suspect as well, that Hasan won't cooperate in that whitewash.

#6 The judge, Col. Tara Osborn, ruled today that prosecutors could not mention Hasan's correspondence with Alwaki, an American born al Qaeda recruiter and organizer.

Of course not. Any discussion along these lines might reveal the reasons why Hasan was given such a long leash. If no one flips the rock over on this end, obviously Alwaki isn't likely to do so either. With a cork in both ends, we'll simply continue to call it "workplace violence" and go about our business.

#10 "Sharply limit the damages ina civil suit" = AFAIK, unless MAJOR HASAN formally admits to working for a foreign Govt,or in the altern evidence found widout any admission that he was, the only limits the victims of Hasan's rampage can collect from is agz Washington, DC.

Perhaps the Bammer has discovered another rationale for Budget, Debt-busting NEW "QE"???

* FYI CYBERCAST NEWS SERVICE [CNS] > US$2,001,093,000,000 - FEDERAL OWNERSHIP OF US DEBT BREAKS US$2.0TRILYUHN FOR FIRST TIME.

versus

* SAME, FREEREPUBLIC > WELFARE PAYS MORE THAN A MINIMUM-WAGE JOB IN 35 STATES.

Espec at Gitmo???
