"Johnny Spann is the father of CIA officer Johnny Micheal "Mike" Spann, who was killed in a prison riot after being videotaped speaking with John Walker Lindh.
Johnny Spann is conducting his own investigation into the origins of the riot at the Mazar-e-Sharif prison, where suspected Taliban supporters were held. Spann contends that the uprising began with a planned grenade attack inside the prison building rather than a spontaneous scuffle outside where his son was interviewing prisoners, including Lindh."
Let's never forget what Mike Spann's father is going through... Johnny Lindh can rot as far as I'm concerned.

If they would of searched those prisoners properly, the whole thing never would of happened. It ended up being a siege and so many people were killed for nothing.

I'd prefer firing squad.

You are a jack@ss. It is a shame that the attacked occurred, but I am not quite ready to blame it on incompetence.

Someone posted earlier a very apropos statement:
"Lindh already received clemency. He's been allowed to live while Spann was not."

Hey, I think if we look back, we've all done something in our youth that we regret. Maybe we stole something, or played a mean prank on an unpopular classmate, or voted democrat, or joined in arms with a band of international terrorists bent on subjugating the entire world to their stone age culture and murderous religion.
Cut the kid some slack, it could have happened to any of us.

I can understand a father's anguish, but he's wrong to try to save his son from the consequences of his actions. John Walker Lindh is a traitor who voluntarily left our country to fight for our declared enemies.
The leftist cultural trend which makes excuses for wrongdoing instead of upholding standards has resulted in millions of young people who are easy prey for fanatic ideology because they have no principles or values to help them discern right and wrong.

Mr. Frank Lindh, if you're looking for sympathy you'll find it in a dictionary...between sheep-dip and syphilis.

Um, I think you directed that towards the wrong poster.

You would think the father would push for personal responsibility since his kid took up with terrorists.
Don't kill him, but do give the kid at least 20 years in a hard prison for starters.

How dare this pusbag ask for clemency! He should go down on his knees to Mike Spann's dad and beg for forgiveness, but being a slimy liberal he will continue to preach what a "hero" his dirtbag son is.
John Lindh can and should rot till the end of his days..in another era he would have received worse.

John Walker Lindh is a POS and got off easy with a 20 year sentence. For his possible complicity in Spawn's death, he should be six feet under.

You can call me all the names you want if that makes you feel like a real tough chick. How did those prisoners so called end up with all those weapons? Because of sloppiness. Did you read about The Siege Of Mazar-I-Sharif by Luke Harding? It might give you some knowledge to form an opinion with.
