says that he "does not appreciate the nature and
consequences of the proceedings against him,
is unable to render assistance to counsel, and has
impairments in reasoning as the result of a mental
illness, ie, post-traumatic stress disorder, complicated
by the neuropsychiatric effects of prolonged
isolation". José Padilla appears to have been lobotomised:
not medically, but socially. If this was an attempt
to extract information, it was ineffective...
Bush and Ashcroft made a big deal out of stopping Padilla before he
blew up America.
But when the Supreme Court said he had to charge padilla, they didn't
charge him with
trying to blow up America because they didn't have any evidence that
would hold up.
So they charged him with whatever "crimes" they could think of, instead.
Why
would it be dangerous to let him see where he was walking?
Why
would it be dangerous for him to hear his surroundings?
This is an American citizen - denied his "inalienable" rights.
That's what happens when Fascism runs our government.
away the Constitution
so this guilty-or-unlucky American is going to rot in jail until he
dies or until Bush leaves office.
