Hamid Hayat Is Still in Jail and the U.S. is Still Hysterical

 

Hamid Hayat is a casualty of 9/11.  Or is it massive, national, hysterical ignorance.  He should not be forgotten.  And the souls of the men who prosecuted and convicted him should not be forgotten.

Oh-- you do have souls.  Do you ever think about Hamid Hayat's life in prison?  24 years.  You don't feel sorry for him?

Suppose the FBI were to place some informants with some American gun clubs, have them hang out at their watering holes, befriend them, spend money on them, and casually mention stuff like, "hey, you know, Washington is a cesspool of corruption and wreckless nanny-state attitudes.  I wish someone would blow up Congress one of these days".  Do you think it would be all that hard to get someone to say "you're telling me!"   That's all you need.  That's enough.  You then arrest this person and charge him with terrorism and then you lock him up for 25 years give yourself a medal and a parade and vote for the guy who's going to cut your taxes.

But first, I imagine, you'd have to make him look Arabic.
