Khalid Sheikh Mohammed could not have beheaded Daniel Pearl

http://archives.seattletimes.nwsource.com/cgi-bin/texis.cgi/web/vortex/display?slug=khalid16&dat e=20070316&query=Khalid

1. Someone else already confessed and been convicted.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/1804710.stm
"British-born Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh has been sentenced to death for abducting and murdering US journalist Daniel Pearl."

2. It's worse than that--he's DEAD, Jim!

"Now it has emerged that Kuwaiti national Khalid Shaikh Mohammed did indeed perish in the raid, but his wife and child were taken from the apartment and handed over to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), in whose hands they remain."

I wouldn't be suprised if whoever they are torturing subsequently admits to the JFK assassination, the Lindbergh kidnapping, and being the father of Anna Nicole Smith's baby. Undoubtedly our professional Inquisitors are also probably hoping to learn of his involvement in the killings of Albus Dumbledore and Jon Benet Ramsey, faking crop circles and putting the Ram in the Ramalamadingdong, providing he doesn't run out of fingernails and they have enough batteries for the cattle prods.

You have a way with words that gives me a chuckle.

The issue of extracting and then broadcasting  (false) confessions for political effect is very disturbing, though.

Khalid Sheikh Mohammad on the left.  Who's on the right?  Their faces seem different to me.  Maybe not...

Why does the man on the right look so disheveled?  Is there some propaganda purpose in that?  Could he be just some mentally ill person they've mistreated?  There's no way to know with this government where all the ethical people like John McKay and the generals who disagreed with Bush get replaced with ruthless people, where people are paid to pose as journalists.  What kinds of torture has this person been through?  

And how could this administration have the tiniest shred of credibility left with Patty Murray and the other Democrats who are voting for supplemental funds for this war?
