#2 Didn't he admit to firing at Indian border guards from Pak positions in their portion of Kashmir?

Send him to India... even if the case gets dismissed, he'll spend 5-7 years locked up in remand.

#3 Hicks' father, Terry, said the conditions would be tough."All David Hicks wants to do is get back in the mainstream, get on his with life, get on with a job, try to get into a university," Terry Hicks told Southern Cross Broadcasting radio. "David has been under immense pressure for six years and now he's got another 12 months of pressure."

Fuck you, pops. According to you, he was on the verge of being a pineapple for the last four years. You're a bigger lyin bag of shit then he is...

#5 He gets an armchair ride from the Australian media. The local paper in his hometown, the Advertiser, published a "David Hicks timeline" yesterday, featuring all the bleating about torture in custody and so on. The timeline started on the day he was captured!

#7 The local paper in his hometown, the Advertiser, published a "David Hicks timeline" yesterday, featuring all the bleating about torture in custody and so on.

Well, if they're reporting that, then they're lying...

The plea bargain included a ban on him speaking to the media for one year, and agreement that if he made any money from selling his story the money would go to the Australian Government. He also agreed that he had "never been illegally treated by any persons in the control or custody of the United States".

Earlier yesterday, the chief prosecutor, Colonel Morris Davis, said that if Hicks's guilty plea was not genuine and was being offered only to escape Guantanamo Bay, that would be perjury. Hicks, who is said to have renounced Islam while in prison, took the oath before giving an explanation of behaviour, swearing to tell the truth "so help me God".
