We could starve him...the courts have found that to be acceptable.
I think this guy just complicated his defense a tad bit.

Why is this accursed POS still using valuable oxygen? He should have been hanged the night they caught his putrid ass.

He overpowered his guards. Were any of them 50 year old grandmas from Atlanta?

"I think this guy just complicated his defense a tad bit."
In that Johnnie Cochran is deceased, the accused will not not be arguing that it was his duty as a POW to escape.

My son's bird flew the rescue on this one. Statements by one of the victims is heartbreaking. The whole fragging incident really upset those involved.

Jury selection starts the first week of April. Jury selection for a court-martial? I'm assuming the reporter doesn't know what he's talking about, because it is really hard to believe that the Army would pass this off to a civilian court even if it were possible.

Akbar - is that a converted or contrived Muslim? He looks to me like he would know what to do with a Sonny's pork sandwich.

This is my old unit. Just leave him in the barracks and justice will be done.

He's upset because the war liberated the Iraqis, instead of the raping and murdering that waste of earth predicted.

The English used to know what to do and how to do it. See Kipling, "Danny Deever". It should be the example.

Read the story.
He attempted to overpower his guards.
I suspect he got his ass thumped soundly for his efforts.
The United States Army does not use 50 year old grandmas for prisoner escort.

I wonder if Akbar, "Fell" while being re-apprehended, possibly severely hurting himself in the process.
God I hope so

The United States Army does not use 50 year old grandmas for prisoner escort. If they do have 50 year old grandmothers guarding prisoners, it's because Granny beat the living crap out of all the other guards!
Sergeant Major, please accept this (ex) Captain's salute for your service!
