I doubt it. Unless he could get the nod from Putin. But, somehow, I don't think there is any such connection to an organized terror group. Could be wrong. It's just a gut feeling that these two idiots were working on their own.

thanks
I think if it did come down to a Russian connection Putin might go after them for us.... but I think you are right.......

they could have done this on their own

I feel that ''if'' it is true the two guys done this solely on their own with nobody else involved, then there is not much info they'll get from him.

Same with the boy in CO that shot innocent people in the theater. Why waste tax payers money on them. Back in the day you would stand trial pretty quicklike and when found guilty you'd be walked out for hanging. There is no reasonable doubt in this case.

Water boarding is more like extreme harassment...
It's torture.

It's torture.

It's torture.

I've tried to be nice but you're just the most willfully ignorant human being on the plant.

I invite you to try a little "harassment" for my amusement...

I don't understand what is so wrong with following due process with this accused US citizen. The guilt is beyond obvious and he is going to more than likely pay with his life for it, either through capital punishment or many life sentences in a cage.

As long as he is giving up information let him keep spilling the beans. Don't you think there will be an incredible amount of info gained by analyzing their computers. If they were in contact with a foreign terror group we are going to find out. The FBI tracked them down within a week of the bombing and don't think they are not tearing through what they obtained at their homes to gain every piece of info they can get on these two.

There is enough animals on this planet we don't need to stoop to their level.

Oh good, I get to say Obama tortures his own troops.

I will feel a bit of pity for this kid before they hang him.

In 25 years.

Isn't the death penalty barbaric, or not in this case?

Just by the numbers worldwide the answer is yes. Also, is it possible to be a Muslim and not extreme? The only upside is that they tend to kill more fellow Muslims than non-Muslims. Moreover, this is not a recent phenomena, but goes back to the very foundation of Islam.

I don't think it's possible to understand the Muslim mind through the perspective of Western Judeo-Christian values; the goals, motivations, and politics are entirely different.

That is standard for every Muslim I partied with in my college days. They viewed the freedom here as a playground for their sexual repression. The upside was that the Kuwaiti would always pay the bar tab.

In the IRA's heyday, the amassed a pretty good death toll for good Catholic boys (1,824 fatalities).
