Terrorism Supporter David Hicks Gets Nine Month Prison Term

    Gitmo detainee David Hicks was sentenced to seven years in prison by a military judge after he plead guilty to supporting terrorism but he will do only nine months because the rest of the term was suspended.

   Mr. Hicks will be doing his time back in his native country of Australia to which the United States has until May 29 to move him there.  Source

   It could be done faster than that if the U.S. chooses to do so, but you know how our government is when it comes to getting anything done in a timely fashion.

Under a plea bargain deal with the prosecution, Hicks could only be sentenced to a maximum of seven years.

The plea deal also specifies that any term beyond nine months be suspended, the judge at the sentencing hearing on Friday evening revealed.

   Here's the strangest part of this plea bargain.

As part of his plea deal, Hicks has agreed not to speak to the media for a year, not to receive any money for his story and not to sue the US government.

   We have all heard of the allegations of Mr. Hicks having been beaten by United States forces when he was captured in Afghanistan and of being sedated ( tranquilized ) before he was told of the charges against him.

    He had to withdraw those claims as part of his plea bargain agreement.

Pat Tillman's Death And The United States,Bush and Crime

   We all know that it took a month for the Pentagon to get straight with the American public and Tillman's family about his death.

   President ( ? ) Bush wanted to tell everyone that Cpl. Tillman was killed in an ambush, and this is according to a memo that the A.P. got their hands on. You will recall that Tillman was killed by his own people in Afghanistan.

   The Pentagon released their findings which looked into Tillman's death  and into the military on whether they tried to cover the death up.

The investigators recommended that nine Army officers, including McChrystal, be held accountable for errors in reporting the friendly fire death to their superiors and to Tillman's family. McChrystal was found "accountable for the inaccurate and misleading assertions" contained in papers recommending Tillman get the Silver Star.

Some of the officers involved said they wanted to wait until the investigations were complete before informing the Tillman family.

The latest document obtained by the AP suggests that officials at least as high as Abizaid knew the truth weeks before the family.     Source

   First off, I would say that it is a given that the military was attempting to cover death of Corporal Tillman up. What is really beneath contempt is the fact they waited weeks before telling the dead man's family and then lying about the circumstances to top it off!

   Is every one and everything that has anything to do with Bush/Cheney crooked and criminal? It would not surprise me if the White House cleaning lady has something corrupt going on!

    What kind of pieces of shit did the ignorant ( STUPID ) citizens of the United States put into the White House? A liar, business failure, failure at life, " C " grade student, thief, and pretty much a momma's boy. The man can't think for himself and I bet that the cleaning lady or either Cheney has to put his shoes on for him in the morning.

   George Bush/Dick Cheney have done nothing but continually drain the life out of the United States in everyway possible.

    Our Democratic controlled congress wants to now give Bush timelines on the United States troop withdrawal from Iraq.

  I cannot speak for you, but when I went and voted last November, I was voting for people who would get our friends and family out of Iraq NOW, not in twelve months, or eighteen months. Now means now!

       George Bush/Dick Cheney

              IMPEACH! INDICT! IMPRISON!
