#1 The prosecution should actually run with this, by agreeing to stipulate that Padilla is a deranged and criminal lunatic who should be put in prison for life, phrased in such a way that he and his jihadist fellows sound like insane but violent failures and losers. Even imply that he is not a real Muslim, but a wannabee who has no understanding of real Islam.

If he didn't bite on that bait, then he is a lot smarter than he looks. But he would probably plead guilty just to "show them" that he was a "real" terrorist, and not just some luser.

#3 Once more, al'Qaeda trains its people to claim abuse and torture if they're arrested. Padilla -- who took the name Abdullah al-Muhajir -- is just running with his training.

#4 Let him rot in H*ll, for all I care. They are all liars and are playing the 5th column MSM for the simple tools they are.

#5 His best evidence of mental incompetency is that he conspired with Al Qaeda in the first place.

#6 Islam itself is a mental illness. Waterboard the prick back to his sense then hang him.

Does it bother anyone else that since 9-11 there has not been one single Camel Herder for Allah executed?! WTF Bush.

Speaking of the devil, With a name like Jose you'd think he could claim he was a mexican drug dealer who was shot by federal boarder patrol. Bush would make sure he'd get off.

#7 Plenty have been executed. Just not at the behest of the American judiciary.

#8 Isn't is amazing how terrorists think they are too smart to be caught? As soon as they are caught don't they all claim to be insane? I am sure Jose's conscience was not shocked at the Brig, he does not have one. Jose, let us give you a tip, those folks at a Navy Brig wont put up with your bullsh*t.
