Terror suspect was offered prostitute
Ah, Rooters - a claim stated as bald fact. How, uh, Rooterish.
An Australian terror suspect was offered the services of a prostitute by the U.S. military if he agreed to spy on other detainees held at the Guantanamo Bay base in Cuba, according to court documents.
Again, not a claim, but presented as fact since they decline to indicate the "documents" are, in fact, merely Hicks' claims as he wiggles and squirms trying to escape the facts. Rooters is as low as it goes.
In an affidavit unsealed by a U.S. District Court and seen by Reuters on Friday, David Hicks, a 29-year-old convert to Islam, said he was also beaten while blindfolded and handcuffed, threatened with weapons and had his head rammed into asphalt.
Reminded him of his rave days back in Oz.
Hicks was arrested in Afghanistan in late 2001 and was among the first small group of Guantanamo Bay detainees to be charged. He has pleaded not guilty to aiding the enemy, attempted murder and conspiracy to commit war crimes.
He's innocent, of course - he was vacationing and chasing Taleban wymyns. The AK and RPG were gifts from satisfied girlfriends. They called him "Spanky the MinuteMan" but no one knew exactly why... until...
"Interrogators once offered me the services of a prostitute for 15 minutes if I would spy on other detainees. I refused," Hicks said in the affidavit, which is dated August 5 and witnessed by his U.S. military lawyer Major Michael Mori.
Hey, it's no wonder he refused! 15 minutes??!! What sort of man do they take him for?! He's a minuteman and proud of it! |
