What medical records? I thought Jihad Johnny's lawyers were claiming he didn't receive medical attention from those mean, nasty Americans.

If he was scared when he captured at the prison, he would have said he did NOT support the bombings of the WTC. But he said he supported them. He's a true believer and we should take him at his word. Not his lawyer's word later.

Didn't he also tell his father how he supported the bombing of the Cole? Gee, that doesn't sound like someone who was afraid. He could have left when the USS Cole was bombed.

Didn't read the entire thread because BS is still BS regardless how they try and spin it. His e-mails sent prior to 9/11 speak volumes and there's little wiggle room for this worm.

Lindh’s lawyers say that all of the information they seek will demonstrate the “highly coercive
conditions under which the interrogations upon which the government relies took place.”

....not to mention the highly coercive actions which took place on 9/11......
