Sometimes it ain't safe to be a writer...

Think only the "worst of the worst" (which is what Von Rumsfelt called these guys) are thrown into the torture chambers of Gitmo?

Think it's safe to be a writer?

Think again... and try to convince yourself that you hold no responsibility.

No domestic attacks since 2001, but what of the almost daily attacks against our troops that are fighting a war that was started because Bush lead us to believe that Iraq was a terrorist threat. We have been successfully attacked and will continue to be attacked so long as we occupy a sovereign country.

They may have been framed by fellow Afghanis, but then again they were given a cash reward from our country for turning in these "terrorists". If I point the finger at you, does that make you a terrorist?

The amount of times Shrub has equated Iraq with Al-Quaida/terrorism/9-11 are too numerous to mention and let's not forget that the Senate voted to give him war authority based on lies. To say that Iraq had WMDs and they were too well hidden to find strikes me as desperation if nothing more and minimizing thousands of dead and maimed because they volunteered to go there (lied to or not) is pretty rotten. There's an enormous difference between Iraq and Nazi Germany - we're talking about Iraq here, not other countries. Try to stay on topic. And the fact that you buy into the "95% voter turnout" in Iraq tells me you drank the Kool-Aide, which makes it hard for me to afford your arguement any validity at all.

The topic of this post was that two innocent writers were jailed as the "worst of the worst" in terrorists and, after years of unjust incarceration have finally been released. Throwing out a net of false arguements and lies makes you sound like a dupe of the liars in charge AT BEST. It might help if you considered the topic at hand and the truth rather than your attempts at hiding it.
