I'm fine with sticking this guy in Guantanamo, giving him a military tribunal, followed by a quick execution. But that's just me.

Padilla claims he was tortured in custody, and his lawyers say he is suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder that raises questions about his competence for trial.

Cry me a river

Padilla ain't even Padilla.

He's Abdullah Al Muhajir.

Keep that in mind, and you really don't need to keep much else in mind.

"ACTIVISTJUDGE" made it up in the Keywords, put there by ____? ... so, it's an "activist" judge who would REINSTATE a terrorism charge against an Al Qaeda member? Weird!

"the three charges in the indictment contained nearly identical elements and could subject the defendants to extra punishment for the same act"

I'm confused. The judges reject charges that might cause additional punishment for the same crime, but enhancing punishment for a crime because it is also a "Hate Crime" is ok? \sarc
