"jailed for 20 years under a plea deal."

Guess dad missed the part it was a "plea" deal meaning his son acknowledged his crimes and agreed to the negotated terms

I think the dad doesn't understand the situation.

Look I can't imagine the pain a father must feel knowing their son turned traitor against his nation, but please don't tell me this kid is some sort of victim. He was bound to that stretcher so he wouldn't get up and attack US forces AGAIN.

I don't know if it is guilt or what, but your son is a traitor, pure and simple... he's lucky he only got 20 years.. he should have been executed.

Being an enemy combatant, captured injured, being strapped to a stretcher is NOT TORTURE.. what insanity runs through this guys mind?

"I cannot fathom why the military felt it necessary to humiliate him in this way."

He could have gotten a 9mm behind the ear. Consider yourself lucky.

Can you hear it? That's the sound of the world's smallest violin playing the world's saddest song.

I can't imagine his father feels pain knowing their son turned traitor against his nation. At worst he agrees with him. At best, he thinks it was a childish prank... you know, run off on a lark and do some jihad, like any other kid.

You Forgot The BARF Alert!

The kid is a traitor and should have been executed.

You know, I was seriously going to say "Look, this kid is an idiot and made a mistake of supreme dumbness. Chalk it up to youthful idiocy and cut the kid loose." But now that he's dropping these outright lies into the media, screw him. Let him rot the full 20. There's plenty of Muslims in prison - he won't be lonely.

"public hysteria over the September 11 attacks"

I guess we're suppossed to take the murders of 9-11 as just
another news item.

Now we are seeing perfidy does have a genetic component...
just like the recent legal maneuvering by Julius and Ethel Rosenberg's
offspring about "Bush's illegal spying".

Didn't Jihad Johnnie's downward spiral start about the time
his father left the family to shack up with another man.
I would suggest prolonged self-examination, but liberals are
about blame, not thought and reflection.

The only thing tortured here is this odd man's little mind.
