I wonder who will be picking up the bill when this Saudi Arabian, sues for compensation?

Look on the bright side, aog. At least when he gets his compo they'll stop his bennies. (I think)

Interesting (and somewhat long-winded) read here

Khandro
Thanks for that link. The CRT sublink provides some very interesting explanations and descriptions that should keep our apologists amused. Course they will dismiss it all with," well they( CRT) would print that wouldn't they ?"

Thats the same link I just described from Khandro. Found it very informative but it can't be true of course can it? :-)

[Baldric]

Let's just wait and see, shall we?

baldric

there is quite a lot of bilge in the ref you give
looks like some americans writing about English Law

they also say there isnt a crime for what he has done ( like you know the Treason Act 1351 doesnt quite fit modern cyber explosives cases )
which is logically quite near to:
he hasnt done anything criminal .....

as for... "they [the other motley crew] treated him like a rock star"
that is no reason to keep him locked up for fourteen years !

// Thats the same link I just described from Khandro. Found it very informative but it can't be true of course can it? :-)//

well spotted - no they admit early on that most of the statements cannot be proven or else there would have been a case....

so is any of it true
or is it so secret that no one can see it ?

"No smoke without fire imo!"

[bazwillrun]

Exactly Baldric, and even if ony 25% of that report is true and correct thats enough to damn him for what he "really" is....I have a feeling we shall be getting to hear more about this "terrorist apologist" in the future....

Charity worker...my rs...

Wot, the one at 11:12 & 11:15?

[bazwillrun]

I ve only read the one you posted at 10.59 this morning

[ummmm]

//Doesn't take any special skills for Muslims to produce kids, just ask Rochdale's Mohammed Salim, father to 11.//

I'm from an Irish Catholic family....I know plenty of larger families than that!

[Svejk]

Don't worry, we'll be kicking the tinks out after the RoPers. ;-)

[bazwillrun]

In a way I wish the security peeps would leave this moocher alone for a while now, because he'll get complacent and soon be up to his old tricks.

you can be 100% sure he will have been getting advice from all the lefite do gooder lawyers et al about how he will be monitored, surveillance of his phone, emails etc etc etc and how careful he will need to be...

[Gromit]

Just read the pdf. It wasn't very convincing. It was full of 'thought to have been' and 'the US believes' without anything to back up those claims. He is said to have been incriminated by other detainees. Unfortunately info obtained from torture tends to be unreliable. People will admit to anything to stop the torture. One multiple confessor who implicated Aamer, has been deemed unreliable by the US themselves.

[Svejk]

30% of those released from Guantanamo Bay have gone on to be involved in terrorism. (20% deffo, 10% suspected)
Just goes to show that getting released doesn't mean you're innocent.

[Gromit]

Svejk,

Because they have never had a trial or been convicted, it is impossible to state they were innocent or guilty. I don't think anyone is claiming everyone is innocent. Of prisoners released from UK prisons, 40% reoffend. The Guantanamo rate 17.5% (the true figure) is less than half that.
