Amos:

The most telling development recently is the government's admission that they have indeed committed war crimes, at the very least, torture. Notable here is that al-Qahtani was the alleged "20th hijacker" (or at least one of them; there have been several, just as there have been myriad "#2 in al Qaeda"s) ... and the torture has poisoned any possibility of a fair trial on this charge.

Cheers,
