THOUGHT FOR THE DAY!

"I am strongly in favor of using poisoned gas against uncivilized tribes. The moral effect should be good...and it would spread a lively terror.... "-- Winston Churchill commenting on the British use of poison gas against the Iraqis after World War I

 

The Hamdan Validation

On Thursday, a war crimes tribunal sentenced Salim Hamdan to a mere five and a half years in prison, which, with credit for time served, means that Osama bin Laden's bodyguard and driver could be released as early as January. To borrow the obligatory media idiom, this "raises questions" about the process -- namely one: Could anything happen at Guantanamo that isn't "a stunning rebuke" or "an embarrassing blow" to the Bush Administration?

Webmaster's Commentary: 

This idea that we can throw Osama's driver into jail is silly on the face of it. Do we also lock up Osama's barber? His dry-cleaner? The guy who carted around his kidney machine? How about the guys who buried him? After all, they are hiding a known terrorist!

And how about the people who paid "Tim Osman", and trained and financed him? Are they not supporters of terror worthy of orange jumpsuits?

Tim Osman!

I would give up some cherished momentos just to see again the photo of Osama "Tim Osman" Bin Laden and George Bush Jr. taken on their Scandinavian summer holiday when they were teenagers. The other person in the photo was Osama's brother, now also deceased.

Also, Tim Osman (Osama's American Nickname) was heavily featured in Danny Casalaro's "Octapus" which got him murdered in DC years ago.
