I love how it's personhood and not man hood.

Is the guy going to move to New York after it's all over?

I found tears welling up in my eyes as I read this story. The government is subjecting this poor man to handcuffs and blindfolds and his only crime was wanting to subject tens of thousands of men, women and children to a slow death by radio active exposure from a dirty bomb.

Can't we do something to make sure this man gets the treatment he deserves?

Still video images of alleged terror operative Jose Padilla in chains and wearing headphones and blacked-out goggles demonstrate the harsh tactics used by U.S. interrogators while he was in military custody as an "enemy combatant," his lawyers said in court papers.



Sounds about like me, on an overnight flight.

And I agree that it is harsh and inhuman.

wearing headphones and blacked-out goggles

That's how I look on a transatlantic flight.
I should stop torturing myself.

-"The government's treatment of Mr. Padilla has robbed him of his personhood."-

LOL!

But only in an hysterical, non-funny way. He checked his "personhood" at the door when he decided to hook up with the terrorist element. I imagine before that he wasn't much of a great guy, either.

Harsh tactics? Playing to the sympathies of the effeminate in this country with such outlandish hyperbole seems to be the 'tactic' of the day.

Padilla claims, among other things, that he was forced to stand in painful stress positions, given LSD...

That explains the shades and the headphones. He's living in a hippie paradise.

Was he beheaded? Did he have an opportunity to explain why he was hanging out with Al Qaeda?

I've got no sympathy for wannabe terrorist Jose Padilla. NONE.

Why don't we treat him in the tradition of Islam, behead him and send the video to Al Jeezra. Then Seymour would have to praise the military for humane and enlightened treatment.

He's the dirty bomb guy, right?

His actions were going to kill thousands both immeditaely and over time. If his discomfort is the alernative to me watching my loving wife and baby die slowly of radiation poisoning for the glory of Allah, then I'm in.

I guess we would all have been sniggering too much if he had said "robbed him of his manhood"

In just about every jurisdiction in the U.S., dangerous prisoners are routinely put in chains.
