Mother Jones - Comments for "Hamdan Taken Out of Bush's Hands"

Are you s***heads really so naive to think that Hamdan was only a low level nobody?

They should have sent him to the gallows.

We do not condone violence.

I think the Ragin' Hillbilly must be referring to putting a bullet in the back of Bush's head.

Pure speculation:

Given that the military judges knew all of this in advance, what is to say they did not plan it perfectly to get it out of the Bush Adm.'s hands? Six years, when the defense asked for four, and the prosecution asked for 30 to life? Coincidence? Or an honest decision that this guy had, for whatever he had done, served appropriately long enought, but which took into account that a Bush government would not accept the verdict? Add to that the military judges' words, expressing hope that he would soon return to his wife and kids.

If so, that would an impressive feat of justice.

And R.H., the only disgrace is that our government wasted so much time and energy going after a driver with no education instead of the real masterminds of attacks against civilians ...

This is a disgrace. Could someone please put a bullet in the back of this man's head?

More interesting, however, would be how they would handle the many other "enemy combatants" that the US has detained, of whom presumably some are more dangerous than truck driver who dared to drive trucks in order to feed his kids.

For the love of G**, the Nazi truck drivers probably bore responsibility but I don't remember hanging them at Nuremberg ...
