The private academy caters to some wealthy children - a few chauffeurs waited by their cars while their young charges played catch in the afternoon sun yesterday - but Abu Ali's parents, who emigrated from Jordan, appear to come from modest means.
Isn't it in the Alkida handbook to cry "torture" whenever arrested? I'm getting sick of hearing this. And frankly, their cries of "wolf" leave me feeling that I really don't give a damn whether we torture them to death in the future.
Heck CNN ran the story last night and had Assassination Plot with a big "?" behind the charge on onscreen graphics like their was some questions about it.
The ms media is irrelevent and becoming even more irrelevent. If anyone pushes the US too far, we can and will turn their country into glass. I quit getting too excited about the ms media awhile back, it's good for your soul.
Does anybody really listen to what ABC has to say? Jennings is worse than Rather.
A torture a day keeps the terrorist at bay...
If you want to track media bias, or just bad journalism for that matter, count how many media references to the fact that Abu Ali was valedictorian there are relative to media references to what he was valedictorian of.
Ok I may sound dumb here, but couldn't the prosecution argue these marks were self-inflicted? Don't practicing Muslims thrash their own backs with strips of leather tied together during religious ceremonies?
So he voluntarily goes to Saudi Arabia....why let him back in? He's just like thousands of other terrorist who hate the President.
I guess going to the mother land was not such a great idea after all.
The moral of the story is, don't go to Saudi Arabia if you're planning anything illegal. They're not as nice to criminals as we are.
He didn't really say this, did he? What a brain-dead statement.
ABC News has become almost as much a cartoon show as has See-BS.
On a unrelated side note I think U.S. citizeship should be exclusive. Dual citizenship is crap and shows a disrespect for the U.S. If you become naturalized you should denounce whatever citizenship you hold and if you are a born citizen and opt to besome a citizen of another country you denounce the U.S. citizenship.
Then specifically state in the constition that it ( constitution ) applies only to U.S. citizens. I believe that would apply to Peta Jennings et. al.
Exactly. It's like mean Mr. Bush picked on the All-American boy, who is really the victim here.
No, I don't watch Jenning's Peter any more than I do Rathernotbeonmytelevision. Nor is Tom Blowchow allowed there, either.
There is a list of people not allowed on my television. Those 3, Dick Vitale, that miserable little creep that was Clinton's PR secretary before he whored himself to the MSM, Hilarity, the list goes on...
Whoa...I am second to none in thinking of the MSM as venal and stupid, but did Ross really say this?! Last I checked, President Bush was still (thank GOD) alive and giving a fabulous speech to the troops in Germany.
Maybe that's why the assassination charge hasn't been filed and hopefully never will be. (Just a thought, ABC...duh)
I'm not one bit worried about how the prosecution will handle the torture accusation. They will argue what the facts dictate and not say "self-inflicted" if it can't be shown, they will if it can be shown.
We don't even know he does have marks on his back. I certainly do not go by this lawyer or the suspect or any of his supporters' word.
Well, I'll go out on a limb and say he was brought back to face charges.
/s
"Enemy Within" bump.
I think the moral of the story is if you're a terrorist we'll hunt you down and bring you to justice.
If the Saudis were REALLY our allies they would have taken his head.
