one person deemed him a terrorist

because he prayed during the us national anthem? holy shite (so to speak). HE'S NOT AN AMERICAN. he had no 'obligation' to put his hand over his heart during the national anthem of a country that is NOT his. he was determined NOT to be a terrorist BY americans. WHY IS HE STILL IN GITMO? (oh if someone is deemed a REAL terrorist AND they are judged to be a REAL terrorist in a FAIR and IMPARTIAL trial, WHICH IS THEIR RIGHT, then i DO believe they should be jailed. oh one more thing, we have domestic terrorists too you know. like those that bomb gay bars and abortion clinics. THEY should be in gitmo too)

Evidence Of Innocence Rejected at Guantanamo


By Carol D. Leonnig Washington Post Staff Writer
Just months after U.S. Army troops whisked a German man from Pakistan to the military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, in 2002, his American captors concluded that he was not a terrorist.
"USA considers Murat Kurnaz's innocence to be proven," a German intelligence officer wrote that year in a
memo to his colleagues. "He is to be released in approximately six to eight weeks." But the 19-year-old student was not freed. Instead, over the next four years, two U.S. military tribunals that were responsible for determining whether Guantanamo Bay detainees were enemy fighters declared him a dangerous al-Qaeda ally who should remain in prison. ............
.....................In newly released passages, however, Green's ruling reveals that the tribunal members relied heavily on a memo written by a U.S. brigadier general who noted that Kurnaz had prayed while the U.S. national anthem was sung in the prison and that he expressed an unusual interest in detainee transfers and the guard schedule. Other documents make clear that U.S. intelligence officials had earlier concluded that Kurnaz, who went to Pakistan shortly after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, to visit religious sites, had simply chosen a bad time to travel. ..............
