The US says it will not allow its al-Qaeda suspects to testify at the retrial of a man charged with helping to plot the 11 September 2001 attacks.

The decision was announced as Moroccan Mounir al-Motassadek appeared in court in Hamburg, Germany, on Tuesday.

The stance is seen as a major blow for the prosecutors.

Why are you surprised? Only a week ago the Bush administration named their biggest double agent in Al-Queda while he was still operative.

[Rictor]

yeah, that was a dumb move. well, that may be just a bit of an understatement.

As for not allowing suspects to meet and cross-examine witnesses, thats pure bull****, just like all Bush administration decisions in regards to terr'rists since 9/11.

[vyper]

They're probably terrified that if the guy gets a fair trial it might be the wrong man.

[Zakalwe]

Really? Even though the article says this is a major blow to prosuecution.

[karajorma]

The germans should just say f**k it. 9/11 didn't happen to us and give the guy a ticket to Syria or Iran or where ever he wants to go. If the Amercans don't care about one of the terrorists involved in an attrocity commited in their own country why should the Germans?

In addition to that, the US's "our way or the highway" approach has made many germans upset at the US. This is why having allies is a very good thing.

Actually I did, never underestimate the power of sheer stupidity, although sending troops into the Shrine of Imam Ali is pushing things a bit too far.

I never underestemate the stupidity of other people, that is one of my pricepal rules of life in fact, but this (everything he's done over the last 6 months) goes beond stupidity into the relm of "he has to be doing this intentionaly"

[Rand al Thor]

Im finding Janus' reply hard to make a decision on. Are there people that are actually that stupid and ignorant to hold that view or is it some kind of sarcastic joke?

But then Bush has a good chance of being re-elected so I guess there are plenty of idiots to go round. And Im not really talking abot the war issues. I agree hussein needed booting but he should be impeached purely for the false reasons he sold to the world.

What really gets me are that his general policies are so unbelievably upper class and coporate biased. Im amazed he still gets support from average joes. Its like watching lemmings.

Thats a bit conspiracy-minded, but I agree completely. The people in charge, I mean the ones really in charge, not Bush, of American foreign policy, are all highly educated and intelligent people. Bush's series of ****-ups stands a very good chance of being intentional, in order to unseat him.

Kerry may wear a nicer mask, but in the long run he is much better for the American empire than Bush. Dubya's been in office for four years, and already he is universally depised. But not to worry, Kerry will come along and fix all that up, while retaining the same policies. As I've said on occasion, if I were American, I'de vote for Nader, because I'de rather have Bush than Kerry in the whitehouse.

[Moonsword]

Nah, not quite.  After all, scientists have proven most lemming deaths are accidents.

This is real stupidity.

YES! At least I managed in something.

It's a joke, relax. But the people who sprout the bull**** I was citating are not difficult to find in THE INTERNET!!1 Just take look at some lunatic right-wing site, like FreeRepublic.
