gearhog Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Some of you spent your entire careers fighting terrorists. You sacrificed. Some sacrificed everything. Why? So the DoD could negotiate and strike a deal with a 9/11 mastermind? How many more ways are they going to spit in our faces? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brabus Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 The guy should have been hung by his dick while receiving death by bunga bunga the minute after all useful intel had been extracted. But here we are…ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger41 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 IDGAF about him spending the rest of his life in jail versus executed. If he offered something up to get that deal, even better. Besides, getting killed is the easy way out. Enduring the rest of your life in prison as you slowly waste away is a better punishment, IMO. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brabus Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Maybe, that depends on the prison. Russian prison, fuck yeah…US coddled prison with 1st world amenities, hell no. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sua Sponte Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Death would probably be welcomed by him since he's already spent 21 years at GTMO and now will spend an eternity there. Him being confined for life is more torturous, which is a good thing considering what he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayton Bigsby Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 Does GTMO qualify as 1st world amenities? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danger41 Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I can think of many times when I would have much rather been killed than had to endure pain for a very long time. Recent trip to in-laws is a great example. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which tells me he’s living decently enough to prefer his current lot over death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gearhog Posted August 3 Author Share Posted August 3 (edited) Lloyd Austin just revoked the plea deal, making the death penalty possible again. I'll give him credit for that, but some of you have a record of immediately carrying the water for the current official position, no matter how wrong it may be. I would like to see more critical thinking. Edited August 3 by gearhog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think he was actually unaware of the plea deal? I find it hard to believe SecDef was not briefed routinely about a case this big. I think he knew about and blessed the plea deal and his revocation is purely a reaction to public sentiment 94 days before an election.

nunya Posted August 3 Share Posted August 3 I guess you see those as comparable... I don't think a case 23-years in the making is the same as announcing the death of an 87 year old a couple hours prior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d have to be an idiot to think it’s a direct comparison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
