Unless you have forgotten what you defend in this war against terrorism then yes.
The stated purpose of RAF was to stir things up so much that Germany would take opressive measures into use and that way show "the real face" of capitalism. Looks like they the terrorists have taken that approach too and is much more succesful than RAF ever was back then.
They got the right guy this time right?

Yes you should read his rights and pay a lawyer . At the contrary of these people you live in a democratia that guaranteed your individual freedoom.
Anyway a good trial, give the opportunity to learn many things on these kind of people : i don't think it's a waste of money.

Rights? Of course not! We should torture him until we get the info! He has no rights! Lawyer? What on earth does he need one of those for?
A good spot of dehumanising is what's called for! It's the Western way!

He is not a US citizen and therefore not protected by the Constitution. However since this is a "war" on terrorism I imagine he's protected by the Geneva Convention (does that still apply!?) or some more modern equivalent.

No. Not since someone came up with the catch-all term "illegal competant" that magically grants you the right to detain whoever you want for an indefinite time.

You mean illegal combatant. The term came out of the fact that US does follow the Geneva Convention and the terrorists do not. You should read it some time
Under the convention we do not put him in the legal system and treat him like a common criminal. Thank god the fallacy of treating terrorism like a "crime" is over.
Don't worry about this guy's health. The CIA has pampaered the other few major Al Qaeda personnel they've captured. They tend to talk more freely when you do this, though it does take more time.
People in here just want to believe that the US can do no right.
Later, if he resists, burn his eyes out.
Do this all in a public view inside a glass encased room at ground zero.
<strong>I hope they first cut off his arms and legs with no anesthetic and THEN start to interrogate him.

All the extremism of the world would be happy to see that. However this would never happen otherwhere than your (dirty) dreams.

Probably not. That article quotes no sources, only speculation. It seems to try and paint him as a martyr who was unjustly murdered, as he had is hands up and was surrendering. He even, very nobly, had time after he was shot, to scroll in his own blood, "There is no God except Allah, Mohammed is his messenger". The whole article rings of bullshit.

"There is no God except... Aaauuuugghhhhh...."[/eric_idle]
Samantha, we have to work on your sources. They're simply ludicrous.
I think he'll sing. Mainly because of the fact that Pakistan uses some unorthodox methods to get information. I just saw on the news that he has been moved to an undisclosed location now...
One question. Why in the hell do we think that Pakistan is an ally? They seem to harbor these assholes...confusing.

After:
Looking at the hair on that guy, maybe they should use some of that duct tape to make him talk.
Still, I'm not holding my breath for them to achieve the sound of the 'Ayin (ع ) .
