Pfc. (Lynndie) England Court-Martial Moved to Texas
Edited on Fri Dec-10-04 02:01 PM by Tab
FORT BRAGG, N.C. - The court-martial of Pfc. Lynndie England, charged with abusing Iraqi detainees at Baghdad's Abu Ghraib prison, will be held at Fort Hood, Texas, not Fort Bragg, the Army said Friday.

The move is being made to bring together several cases stemming from the prisoner abuse scandal, including those of England, Spc. Charles Graner, Sgt. Javal Davis, and Spc. Sabrina Harman, the Army said in a statement.

"Consolidating the cases at Fort Hood will conserve resources and ease logistical constraints for witnesses," the statement said.

Graner's court-martial is scheduled for Jan. 7 at Fort Hood.

4. Nope.. One "lump" under the rug
instead of individual lumps under many rugs..

They will have a "show trial", and get sentenced...and when no one is paying attention any more, they will probably be set free, provided they stick with the "official story".

7. Fort Hood? Texas? Bush Goons? is Texas the first FREE TERRITORY OF THE
NEW AMERICA WHERE VALUES AND LAWS ARE BUSH VALUES BUSH LAWS?

SCOTT MCCLELLAN SAID TODAY THAT "WE ARE A COUNTRY OF VALUES AND A COUNTRY OF LAWS" AND THAT OUR VALUES AND LAWS ARE BEING OBSERVED IN GUANTANAMO ACCORDING TO THE GENEVA CONVENTION.

WASN'T THAT A DARN CACKLE IF I EVER HEARD ONE...

FIDEL CASTRO USED TO CLAIM THAT CUBA WAS "PRIMER TERRITORIO LIBRE DE AMERICA"? TRANSLATION: "CUBA-FIRST FREE TERRITORY OF THE AMERICAS"!

Move Over Fidel -- The Bush Goons Have Taken Over!!!!!!!!!!!!
