What a torture chamber Guantanamo is, eh? It's so horrifically draconian that the terrorized, tortured prisoners lounge around reading the propaganda that their own side, the avowed enemies of the United States, puts out.
Meanwhile, a French judge is seeking access to Guantanamo in order to confirm allegations prisoners have made of Qur'ans being desecrated there. This dhimmi judge should ask himself this question: if Gitmo is so lax and politically correct and clueless that al-Qaeda literature can make its way there, is it really likely to be the kind of place where rogue "Islamophobic" American troops fiendishly desecrate Qur'ans in defiance of official U.S. policy?
"U.S.: Al Qaeda magazine got into Guantanamo cell," by Richard Lardner for the Associated Press, January 18 (thanks to Kenneth):
FORT MEADE, Md. (AP) — A copy of a magazine published by an arm of al Qaeda made its way to a terror suspect at the Guantanamo Bay prison, leading to an inspection of cells and a contentious new policy requiring special review teams to examine correspondence between prisoners and attorneys, U.S. prosecutors said Wednesday.Navy Cmdr. Andrea Lockhart told a military judge during a pre-trial hearing that a copy of Inspire magazine got into a cell. She provided no details on who received the magazine or how. But she said the breach showed that prior rules at the base governing mail review were not adequate. Yemen’s al Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula launched the online, English-language magazine in 2010. An early issue contained tips to would-be militants about how to kill U.S. citizens.
Lockhart is part of the U.S. team prosecuting the case against Abd al-Rahim al-Nashiri, a Saudi national charged with orchestrating the attack in 2000 on the USS Cole that killed 17 sailors. Al-Nashiri, 47, is considered one of the most senior al Qaeda leaders. He has been held at the U.S. Naval Base in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, since 2006 after spending several years held by the CIA in a series of secret prisons.
How mail between Guantanamo prisoners and their attorneys should be handled consumed several hours of the al-Nashiri’s pre-trial session on Tuesday and Wednesday. At issue is whether even a cursory examination of the legal correspondence violates the attorney-client privilege.
The dispute reflects the untested nature of this latest attempt to resume the military tribunals at Guantanamo. The prosecution of al-Nashiri is already underway and the U.S. is preparing to prosecute five other prisoners accused in the Sept. 11 attacks, yet defense lawyers and government prosecutors are still fighting to establish basic legal ground rules....

OT, but just watching the first episode of the BBC's 'The Crusades'. It doesn't disappoint - a total whitewash and excuse-fest of Islam within 5 minutes (they don't waste any time framing it as an unprovoked attack), as expected...
...what's the magazine called, Popular 'Muslim' Mechanics?
If you get the chance to respond to such drivel, here is an excellent, and I mean excellent, chronology of muslim attacks on Europe during the 463-year period spanning Mohammed's death in 632 to the First Crusade (1095),

THE CRUSADES IN CONTEXT
By Dr. Paul Stenhouse,
Since when is desecrating the Qur'an a crime under international law? I can't imagine what the French judge thinks is the legal basis for enquiring into these allegations.
Al-Qaeda magazine found in Guantanamo cell

Good to know they won't be out of the loop on the latest methods for killing Americans when they get out...sarc/off

Good grief. France is now over 8% Muslim, and has the crime rate and Jihad terror plots to prove it.
But this French judge wants to know if Gitmo guards are *really* flushing Qur'ans down the john? What idiocy...
And I suppose this is his vision of going after international scofflaws. Clearly, the horrors wrought by Muslims on their victims all over the world is not an issue for him, but the mythical "Qur'an flushed down a john" is the most pressing "Human Rights violation"....
Ah, poor baby. The concierge took away his best jihad mag?
Beastie Boys anyone? "You gotta fight. for your right. to jihad."
Legal ground rules? It will be: sharia.
Obama is no Christian. His Chicago church was a pan-religious center, which included Lewis Farrakhan within its ranter's list. BHO has never done a thing for persecuted Christians, except deny persecution. He has got to be voted out of office.
The games continue, this time courtesy of a loopy French judge. Damn, think of what George Orwell would make of all this were he still here. "All" he'd have to do with his inimitable prose would be to substitute one totalitarian ideology, i.e., Islam, for another, i.e., Marxism. The rest would follow as a matter of course.
Holy hell, when is mankind going to finally figure out that no totalitarian ideology works or should be accorded any respect? Yeah, when?
"He has got to be voted out of office."
Yes he does. But not by electing Ron Paul, who will play out to be the same song, different verse. Ron Paul has a litany of brainwashed "revolutionary" groupies crossing party lines and voting in every primary up until the November election.
Ron Paul must be outed for what he is. What say you?
"Meanwhile, a French judge is seeking access to Guantanamo in order to confirm allegations prisoners have made of Qur'ans being desecrated there."
Don't let him in...he'll want a room...
Muslims desecrated and burned lots of bibles in Malawi a few months ago, Did that judge traveled there to investigate that? of course not.
Even if they desecrated a Quran, that's not illegal, sharia doesn't rule America nor International Law. Scumbag!.
"Holy hell"
lol! ...reminds me holy quran, which of course isn't holy.
And I wonder if this al-qaeda magazine features very revealing pictures of raisins in provocative poses aimed at arousing lust and desire in would-be bombers. Tsk, tsk, if so, then they have no shame ...
crickets

It will be soon if the OIC has it's way.
If a koran was desecrated so what? The majority of people on the planet are not muslim and do not consider the koran sacred.
Since when do terrorists get mail?
Is everybody in our government and military clinically insane?
Terrorists deserve a noose, not news.
So, uh, did the magazine have a naughty Muslimah centerfold?

Ahmed: "Yo, Mohammed! Check out the mag those stupid Kuffar lawyers smuggled in for me!"
Abdullah: "Whoa! Dude! She's hot!"
Ahmed: "Abdullah. I think you've been here too long."
Abdullah: "Whaddaya' mean, man? You've been here as long as I have!"
Ahmed: "Abdullah - that "hottie" on the front cover is Anwar al Awlaki."
Abdullah: "Damn. Kinda' looks like my favorite goat back home, too."

Oops.
So sorry for the double post. And one of the character's names is Abdullah, not Mohammed, though I guess it really doesn't matter.
Must. Have. Coffee.
Thanks for the link - it's excellent. His opening comment is exactly what was said within 3 minutes in the first episode of 'the crusades' - that it was a papal power play, pure and simple - nothing to do with the previous 450 or so years of Islamic warfare being waged on the non-islamic world.
I also watched the BBC Crusades. As is to be expected in these politically correct days.... it was a complete whitewash explaining how the wicked Europeans attacked the Religion of Peace.
