#5 

For 45 minutes his son told him about the conditions at the camp and said suicide was one of the few ways to get back at the guards. While he insisted he was not suicidal himself, he told his father: "We're being pushed, pushed, pushed all the time. Don't be surprised if things happen."


You know you're in trouble when the only way you can get back at the guards is to commit suicide. Heh.

You picked the wrong team pal. Live with it, or in your case, not.

#6 Mr Hicks said that while his son was pleased about the court victory he was depressed that he was not being released. "That means I could be here for another 12 months or more..."

Huh? What "victory"?

Strip away all the political hoopla surrounding the USSC decision, and it becomes a rather dry, technical matter: the court said that, according to the laws now in place, military tribunals are not the correct venue for trying detainees such as those in Guantanamo; that Congress can make military tribunals the correct venue if it chooses to do so; that absent such action by Congress, the detainees can be tried in civilian criminal courts if the Administration wishes; or the Administration can simply continue to detain them for the duration of the conflict.

Given the conflict has already been going on nearly 1,400 years, I'd say Hicks's prospects for release anytime soon are pretty damn dismal.

Give this asshole about 10' of rope, or an extra bedsheet or two, and leave him alone for a couple of hours to indulge his creativity.

#7 "guards are absolute pigs."
That just put a picture in my mind of a prison with an extra fence around the outside and a bunch of ill-tempered, big-tusked boars roaming the area between the fences. The perfect Muslim prison camp.

#8 Wait a minute, I think I saw the sympathy meter move slighty--oh, it was negative direction.

#9 I think his Dad needs a good old patriotic beating as well to remind him why his asshole son is incarcerated - crimes against his country and the western world.

#12 Montage of Millie Vanilie, Vanilla Ice, Yoko Ono, and Hillary Clinton speeches piped into each room ...


Yup, that'd do it. Soundtrack by the Sex Pistols.

#13 Actually, I think the soundtrack should be a loop of "Honey", "Muskrat Love", "The Way We Were", and "Afternoon Delight". If 3 weeks of that doesn't make you commit suicide, the resulting synaptic damage will render one harmless.

#14 Hahaha, I love this dude. Hopefully congress sits on this as long as they have illegal immigration and this guy whacks himself in the interim. Stupid pathetic idiot.
