    on the fact that confessions produced under duress are unreliable. whether or not he was being tortured at the moment he confessed is irrelevant. they broke him. they tortured and leaned on him for YEARS and he ended up confessing to everything they asked him to... so they just solved 15 years worth of terrorism and everyone gets a gold star and a raise. we have people in america who were held in holding cells for a few hours and simply INTIMIDATED by police before signing confessions that gave them death sentences for crimes they didn't commit, only to be exonerated by dna evidence later... and you're telling me it's impossible that maybe his resume was padded even a LITTLE bit after years of torture and imprisonment without trial or counsel?

    wow lew, cant even use your sentence by sentence dissection tactic on this to try and deny its accuracy? you're bringing it weak today.

    Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
    and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
    over specific principles, goals, and policies.

    reading through this thread i noticed how a majority of people are crediting jlew with labeling this guy as the "mastermind", just because it's in the thread title. just to throw a tidbit out there: everywhere i've seen this story today, they've used the word "mastermind" in the title of the story. don't get down on jlew just because he quoted the title of an article for his thread title.

    mastermind or not, this guy was involved up to his eyeballs. they had proof of that on the computer they seized from his apartment. now i haven't looked through the entire list of things he's admitted to, but the few that i remember, i believe he had a hand in. this guy was top rung with al-queda (sp? i can never remember how to spell that). one thing i'd really like to know though: did all these confessions come at once, or were they taken over the entire time period he's been at GITMO?

    WASHINGTON - Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, the suspected mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, confessed to that attack and a string of others during a military hearing at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, according to a transcript released Wednesday by the Pentagon. "I was responsible for the 9/11 operation from A to Z," Mohammed said in a statement read during the session, which was held last Saturday.


    The transcripts also refer to a claim by Mohammed that he was tortured by the CIA, although he said he was not under duress when he confessed to his role in the attacks.

    In a chilling list of attacks — some of which were carried out, some not — Mohammed claimed responsibility for planning, financing and training others for plots ranging from the 1993 truck bombing of the World Trade Center to the attempt by would-be shoe bomber Richard Reid to blow up a trans-Atlantic flight with explosives hidden in his shoes.

    He said he was involved in planning the 2002 bombing of a Kenya beach resort frequented by Israelis and the failed missile attack on an Israeli passenger jet after it took off from Mombasa, Kenya. He also said he was responsible for the bombing of a nightclub in Bali, Indonesia. In 2002, 202 were killed when two Bali nightclubs were bombed.

    Other plots he said he was responsible for included planned attacks against the Sears Tower in Chicago, the Empire State Building and New York Stock Exchange, the Panama Canal and Big Ben and Heathrow Airport in London — none of which occurred.

    He also said he was involved in planning assassination attempts against former Presidents Carter and Clinton, attacks on U.S. nuclear power plants and suspension bridges in New York, the destruction of American and Israeli embassies in Asia and Australia, attacks on American naval vessels and oil tankers around the world and an attempt to destroy an oil company he said was owned by former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger on Sumatra, Indonesia.

    In all, Mohammed said he was responsible for planning 28 attacks. The comments were included in a 26-page transcript released by the Pentagon, which blacked out some of his remarks.

    No, I knew you were making fun of me in that way, I didnt take it as assholish (is that a word?). Just letting J-Lo understand I wasnt being a jerk to you. He's the touchy one.

    we're all touchy from time to time. plus it's real easy to read what someone wrote, but nearly impossible to detect the tone it was written in. and assholish...i've used it on occasion, so i'd say it's a word.

    Now now, we gotta make it look like it's all true so the simple folk will believe it.
    Keep on rockin in the free world!!!!

    The economy has polarized to the point where the wealthiest 10% now own 85% of the nation’s wealth. Never before have the bottom 90% been so highly indebted, so dependent on the wealthy.
