I really don't get this case. Guy joins a foreign army to fight foreigners. There's no indication he knew anything about connections between the Taliban and al Qaeda, certainly not when joining, and there's certainly nothing about him having been a member or acted for them. The US attacks the army he's fighting for and he's captured. So that means he's committed terrorist crimes in the US?
I suppose not to charge him with terrorist offences would spoil the official "Taliban == al Qaeda" line of bullshit.
Still, from his point of view, if he'd been born anywhere else he'd probably be in a big pit somewhere by now.
I'm not going anywhere near the message boards, I know what they're like and I've just had my breakfast. |
