Story

This is scary. I wonder how often things like this happen. CIA arrests some guy on false charges, flies him off to Syria and have him tortured for 10 months, then realize they were wrong and apologize...

I'm awestruck by this.

Paraphrase: "We're sorry you were wrongly imprisoned for 10 months and tortured, but hey... these things happen. We're not going to stop."

That's just so very special.

All religious extremists are annoying as hell. As are the Atheists who constantly try to mock Religions.

Interesting idea... would you endure torture for 1 million a month? I'd be pretty tempted. Maybe this is where reality tv is heading.

If only we really knew...I wonder how often this happens where we don't hear about it, or where the people being tortured actually die.

So... he was sent by our government to our enemy... so our enemy could help us, their enemy? And he has no proof of this, no marks on his body?


That makes sense...


I mean, I don't deny that it's possible that he was detained for a long period, it's happened... but sent to Syria and tortured...call me naiive, but I need the proof.

I want to be labeled a terrorist and tortured for a couple months.

Of course it'll end up being about 6 mil after taxes but still.

Don't forget, he wasen't sure if he would live or not.

He probably didn't think he'd ever get out and torture would continue.

Could you live with that for months?
