Lets look at a few more points the author had and try and see which way he slants....

. And it was just 20 year-olds aren't done yet. And I believed a lot of stuff when I was 20 years-old with all my heart that I don't believe any more. And I felt like, that we needed a target because we couldn't get Osama Bin Laden and, and I saw a lot of that hate being directed at this kid."

And a lot of the song is, is what I learned about Islam and, and this revelation of how ignorant we are all about Islam in this country, just from the research that I did trying to make the song work."

, this is one song on a record that's, that's, that's a pretty, admittedly a pretty political record. --->Just what political points is he trying to get across? I think it is quite clear.

The album is called Jerusalem ---> Hmmmmm... Obviously Jerusalem has two slants religiously. Which way do you think this fellow leans?

I think P-J had this creep nailed from the beginning. He is anti-america.

I have no doubt about this guys politics. Although he is not alone in his beliefs. I know a bunch of libertarians on this site that feel the same way about the trial. Frankly, I don't.

The sentance was just in my opinion.

I believe the songwriter was excusing the mistakes of a twenty year old and not being pro-taliban or any other nonsense.

SNIFF! Poor little "misunderstood" Johnny Taliban. Of course, the Heroin Addict was just being neutral about him and trying to "get into his head."
