| 42. So far I counted three "probably's" in your reply... |

... in comparison to the fact that he pleaded guilty to illegal things that he factually did. He did serve in the Taliban, who were one of the most repressive regimes I have ever read about. The fact that you are using the fact that * dealt with them to try to mitigate that fact is laughable. Reagen dealt with Saddam in the 80's. Does that mean that Saddam wasn't a monster? We deal with all kinds of wicked men to get what we want.
As far as the charge of carrying a weapon in the service of a foreign power. If that foreign power happens to be one that we are currently fighting, and the Taliban were, then you are damn right he deserve twenty years.
It all comes back to the same place. He knew where he was, he knew what he was doing, and he knew who he was serving. I'll save my indignation for someone more deserving.
