This is the trash who thought the embassies and the Cole and the WTC were a good thing.

Johnny, pray they don't let you out on the street.

[terilyn]

Ha! He'd probably just go to Berkley where they'd build a statue of him or something. He'd fit right in with the hate America crowd that resides there. I'm sure Barbara Lee will be coming to his rescue soon...

[Cato the Censor]

What an outrageous defense. I wish they could hang the bastard and his lawyers.

[mystery-ak]

As if Im not worried enough....my son is in basic rigt now at Fort Jackson.

[joesnuffy]

Hey Johnny...count your blessings you could have fallen into the hands
of the USMC.....Or a few good freepers...you sniveling little... P.O.S.

Your post reminds me of the Oingo Boingo song "Only a Lad":

Only a lad
He really couldn't help it
Only a lad
He didn't want to do it
Only a lad
He's underprivileged and abused
Perhaps a little bit confused

It's not his fault that he can't believe
It's not his fault that he can't behave
Society made him go astray
Perhaps if we're nice he'll go away
Perhaps he'll go away
He'll go away

(Repeat chorus)

Hey there Johnny you really don't fool me
You get away with murder
And you think it's funny
You don't give a damn if we live or if we die
Hey there Johnny boy
I hope you fry!

[PhilDragoo]

Oh that Barbara Lee. Birds of a feather.

Traitors.

Looks like he is working on his defence.

News of Lindh's arrest outraged America.

I was outraged. Outraged that an American citizen would be pointing a weapon at his fellow countrymen. Somehow I don't think that's what is meant by this sentence, though.

[Kermit]

Last week, wasn't his lawyers telling us that the Taliban threatened his life. Geez, why is everyone out to get ol' Suleyman? Oh, what happened to devoting his life to Allah and the goats? Nevermind.

"They denied me my favorite variety of Froot Loops! In fact, they held the box before me and taunted me with them! Wha!"

[RodgerD]

"Sulayman Al-Lindh," "Sulayman Faris" and—his nom de jihad—"Abdul Hamid."

Thanks - This turd should be made to keep his beloved jihad identity at least through his sentencing hearing. Once in prison, and in the company of fellow hard-time maximum security inmates, however, he can revert to his American name: "bitch."

[PhilDragoo]

What do you think, 15 minutes before they fire bomb him,... or nuke Berkeley (now that's a thought) ?

Release him at a press conference with Rumsfeld giving him a medal for providing detailed coordinates for Anaconda.

Someone with an explosive belt will embrace him before the sun sets. 72-Count 'em--72 virgins--or airborne body parts.

[csvset]

Hey, what did he expect from infidels?

Bwahhhhhhhh!

[Robear]

Man, I hope they beat the ever-loving snot out of you, you piece of excrement, and with a Manhattan Telephone Directory just so as to not leave a mark.

[MissAmericanPie]

Like the American Bar Association said, we shouldn't have military tribunals, this is our chance to show the world our wonderful judical system, ugh, double ugh. I don't think I want to show our embarassment to the world, families use to keep embarassments like them locked away in the attic.

[tutstar]

He makes me sick! He was big & bad in Afghanistan. But after he got caught and brought back to U.S.... He's all ready & willing to let Mommy & Daddy get him out of trouble. Some parents!

He made his bed and should be made to lie in it!!!!!!!

"I WAS TORTURED..."

O.K. How was he tortured?

1. He was placed in a room with no view.
2. He was fed "sparingly". What? No Whoppers?
3. He was given "minimal medication". What did he want? Morphine? Medicinal Marijuana?
4. During transfer, he was blindfolded and handcuffed. Where was his Limo?
5. He was placed "NAKED" on a stretcher. Oh! The Horror!
6. He was "exhausted" when he had to meet an FBI agent.

What a whiney crybaby! I'm talking about the lawyer. The criminal is just a piece of garbage and should be placed in a maximum security prison with a 350 lb roommate named Bruno. IMHO.
