#1 UK friends please stop this stupidity. Really I am pleading you do more than give lip service to this. It's bad enough your press trashes my country on a daily basis. That your national funded broadcaster and it's web site misrepresent the facts about my country on a daily basis. That it broadcasts propaganda agaisnt my nation as a matter of routine. This stupid stuff has to stop.

Please force your government to stop it. Please do something about it. If the US was carrying out anti-UK propaganda on a international basis as daily matter of routine you would be flaming us and screaming about cutting ties . This trash is in your papers everyday.

If our law courts were taliking about granting US citizenship to a terrorist captured on the field of battle you would be beside yourselves. Please force the government of the UK to stop this action

#2 Suppose he is given citizenship...

Does that bind the UK government to pressure the US to relase him?
Does that bind the US government to release him?

No.

Gitmo is a US facility. Considerations of US national security, not diplomatic notes, should determine who gets released and who gets a needle in the arm.

#3 I feel sorry for any country who has to put up with Hicks and his babbling father.

#6 Hicks' ass belongs to Uncle Sam. If the Brits insist on having him, they try an SAS raid. Otherwise, they are welcome to continue their mental masturbation.
