with the jury that refused to execute Moussaoui. I want ANSWERS!!!!--not deaths. If Moussaoui is a "whackjob," I want to know who 'programmed' him to do the things he did and why--or, if not psychological programming, who enticed and/or funded him? Who smoothed his way into this country? Who was/is using this seemingly crazy, unstable, and apparently not very bright man, and toward what end? It's highly doubtful he could not have piloted a commercial jet--why then this charade of "flight training"? Was/is he a decoy of some kind? Also, is his looniness the result of torture/psychological conditioning? Who has had access to him?
But most of all I want to know, a) why Colleen Rowley's request to access his computer was denied by her FBI bosses in DC, just prior to 9/11, and b) what Nicholas Berg's email account/password was doing in Moussaoui's computer, and, if that story is true*, what the connection is between Nicholas Berg (famously beheaded on video in May 2004) and Moussaoui.
*News stories after the beheading video reported that Nicholas had been interviewed by the FBI, after 9/11 and after they got into Moussaoui's computer, as to why Nicholas' email account/password was present in Moussaoui's computer; Nicholas told them he'd met Moussaoui by accident on a bus and had lent this total stranger his computer, and the FBI was apparently satisfied with this story; fast-forward two years, Nicholas is permitted to enter Iraq after the invasion and wander around Iraq looking for business for his small telecommunications firm, but on his second such visit is picked up by US forces, held for ten days at Abu Ghraib; his parents were frantically petitioning Donald Rumsfeld for his release; he was then dumped onto the streets in the middle of the Falluja uprising, and was immediately grabbed apparently by Zarqawi's group and beheaded on video--a video that provided Freepers with a cause celebre just after the Abu Ghraib torture pictures became public. The story about Nicholas and Moussaoui's computer was attributed, as I recall, to Nicholas' father Michael, as told to him by Nicholas.
As you can guess, I am profoundly distrustful of both the war profiteering news monopoly narrative of who Moussaoui is, what he has said, and what has gone down in his trial, and of the Bush junta narrative of 9/11.
That is one of the reasons that I am profoundly grateful to the Moussaoui jury for not executing him. Who knows what information may be rattling around in his head, that might be critical to our understanding of 9/11 and to how the junta operates. I tend to think that those who could really inform us have long ago been "rendered," tortured to death, "disappeared" etc. (I think that's what the secret flights may be about, in part), but, like I said, who knows? To execute the only person we have in custody whom we know has some connection to 9/11--however tenuous--would be foolish. And I feel the same way about Osama bin Laden. The purpose of the pursuit should be to KNOW, not to kill. Killing is stupid revenge. And the idiotic "wanted, dead or alive" mantra has resulted in catastrophic "collateral damage."
I am also glad that the jury respected the wishes of the 9/11 families, to end the cycle of revenge. Many of them are very unhappy with the official 9/11 report and with the Bush regime use of that tragedy to justify slaughtering innocent people in Iraq. And, finally, of course, the death penalty itself is uncivilized--and egregiously unfair and unconstitutional in its implementation. Bush/Cheney have killed a lot more innocent people than the perps of 9/11 did. And they aren't even on trial for it (yet). Tells you something about the 'fairness' of the death penalty, ikon of our disreputable 'justice' system. Innocent people are sitting on "death row" for years, because they are poor; some have likely been executed; and mere possessors of marijuana--with two non-violent "strikes" against them--are in jail for life--while the mass murderers, liars and master thieves of the Bush regime go free, and are planning more murders of innocent people.
