CHICAGO: A federal judge in Illinois on Thursday approved a request for a trip to Disney World by a man who the government had once accused of aiding Palestinian militants, brushing aside prosecutors' claims that he may instead flee.
"I'm confident that he will come back," U.S. District Judge Amy J. St. Eve said in giving former Chicago grocer Muhammad Salah permission to make the trip to the Florida vacation spot.

If he doesn't return let the judge be tried in his place.
Probably at least one.
Maybe he can hook up with the accused pedophile that's also being allowed to go to Disneyland?
"I'm going to blow up Disney World!"
D'oh. I didn't check to see if the story had been posted already. My apologies.
It had a different headline, and I'm glad to see we are still talking about this. I continue to wonder of the Orlando Sentinel has written about both of these cases. It would make a great column for a local columnist, as in "Guess who's coming to Disney World."
Please see No. 10.
Your cartoon is really funny, but my tagline might lead someone to think that perhaps I'm part of the "geezer" group you wrote about. Ain't me folks!! Just thought I'd let you know.
I hope he remembers to send the Judge a postcard.

I read your message 3 times before I understood it. I must be a geezer. Maybe Al's hymers.
