Don’t underestimate the intelligence value of capturing this one alive. He’s young and likely to break under intense interrogation.

It will take an ACLU lawyer about an hour to get a loony judge to agree that the public safety exemption was a ruse and declare all his information tainted. Remember, Obama’s pal, Bomber Ayers’, was let go on a technicality too.He might never see a day of jail time and go right to Columbia.

The family has already been questioned regarding possible terrorist activities in the past and one of these foreign criminals should have been deported at other crimes committed in the U.S. in 2009.

Just guessing, but this does not seem too sophisticated.
