Padilla & the Zucchini Prosecution
http://www.counterpunch.org/whitney04272007.html by Mike Whitney
~Read it and weep Homelanders. Another major terrorist attack on US soil and President Hilary will sign off on the arrests of dozens of Americans for "inchoate crimes" and by the end of the century & a few more attacks or rumors of attacks & whoever's President will have thousands of citizens in prison following the precedent set by Padilla's arrest and conviction.
Doesn't $3500 for a 'zucchini' sound like a drug transaction?
Does this writer think Padilla won't be convicted?
I think he'll get life in prison without parole and the only thing to prevent the Bushies from imposing the death penalty is that other doctors (then the two he saw during the past five years) would be required by law to examine Padilla and convinced to ignore the brain damage he suffered while being confined and tortured.
