How Come No One's Talkin' Bout...

[Warren DeMontague]

(excuse me if they are, and I missed the threads)

A) The fact that the Saudi Gov't is "granting amnesty" to High-Level Al Qaeda Turrusts, like this guy, who, we know was yukking it up with Osama immediately following Sept. 11? Specificially, since there's more than a little question (due to money trails leading back to the Saudi Royals, for instance) whether or not Saudi Arabia has been assisting Al Qaeda all along, how do they suddenly have the authority to "grant amnesty" to possible accomplices in the wanton murder of over 3,000 American citizens? Meanwhile, of course, 14 year old paperboys are being sodomized at Abu Ghraib or held at Gitmo indefinitely, because they "might know something"...

and,

B) Finally some lawmakers are asking well overdue questions of Ashcroft and the DOJ about the release to Syria of Globe-trottin, cab-drivin Terrorist Nabil Al-Marabh, about whom the justice dept. said "we HAD to release him" because a trial could have resulted in the release of sensitive information pertaining to national security (!!!).. I haven't seen any threads about this, either.

1. The Amnesty only means they won't get the death penalty.

It doesn't mean they won't be prosecuted at all.

2. It means ...

They'll lock this guy in a deep dungeon never to be heard from again.

Don't worry about him, I'm sure that the house of Saud was feeding him cash. The prodigal son has come home and he will be treated accordingly.

The tragedy is that the FBI will never get a crack at him.

3. That's what some reports seem to say.. However

other reports are calling it a "Royal Pardon", which sounds to me like what it sounds like. And, either way, it doesn't sound like US Law Enforcement will have access.

I actually think the Marabh story is even more disturbing and weird.
