I think I will this confession in the same category as KSM's. Coherced and useless.

Sure looks like they are just coming out of the woodwork and lining up to confess to everything.

I do not buy any of it as it is part of the US propaganda machine to keep the people (those poor misguided souls who believe in the bogus WOT) on side for the cause.

Every so often they throw a new spanner in the works to keep the lie alive.

I know why they finaly came forward!

They resisted water boarding and all sorts of torture, but now the pentagon hired Britney Spears to perform for them at Gitmo and they couldn't take it anymore.(She didn't go to Rehab, she went to Gitmo!)

interesting concept for torture.....


you may actually be onto something here, thematrix

Anyone else noticing this strange trend of everyone confessing to all sorts of things and the increased short notice terror threats?

Are they still trying to scare the american people in submission? Is this whitewash for the Attorney scandal? For the Scooter Libby Conviction? For the common element between the 2? For something else thats happening or up?

Something smells.

If KSM's confession did not quiet the attorney's scandal, I don't know why anyone would think this one would. It's almost like the administration "wasted" this confession that, IMO, they have probably had for some time now. They could have used it when there is less going on to get the maximum "fear factor" or cover-up power for their efforts.

Another thought, maybe they wanted this one to go relatively unnoticed. Could be that there are holes in the confession that a little digging could uncover. Unfortunately, there was no transcript posted with this report so for now we have to take what the government is telling us which leaves little room for research.

oops, sorry WellSee, I must have read your mind this morning when I opened my thread on suspicions about the confessions.

I will ask the mods to close mine so the conversation can continue right here.

Just posting my thoughts from the other thread b4 they close it, once again sorry WellSee

All of a Sudden -- Confessions, Confessions -- Is This a Trigger?

What has made KSM and the Cole bomber suddenly confess within days of each other? Imprisoned for years without disclosure and now this? Are these people getting right with God before they meet their maker? Are their handlers stepping up on interrogation techniques? Are threats being made to these prisoners concerning family members? Could this be a trigger for some new terrorist attack?

It is confusing to me right now, all I know is something smells fishy about the whole thing.........

I would say leave the one open. I asked Mods to move this one to WOT and they suggested opening a new thread there.

Did anything, happen in the world that we were nottold about??? Notice how these so called confessions has made headlines on the Major networks (UK Included), Is something brewing or is the Govs on both sides up to no good as per usual.

Such a coincedence, all of a sudden, 2 confessions arise from what howmany years was each detainee held?

Something is going on. (An Im gettin a unerving feeling about all of this).
