This kind of attitude is why there are rapes in prison. You only have to fight back once. If you don't, well, you become their property.

I would think that having only ONE LEG might put him at a disadvantage, when it comes to fighting off the ‘advances’ of fellow inmates.

0bama had better pick up the phone, tell Karzai that if another hair on the head of this man is injured, we’ll bomb the courthouse and the palace.

Said (alternatively spelled Sayed Mossa) is a father of six and an amputee with a prosthetic leg. Since his arrest, he has been tortured, abused and threatened with death. He has been unable to find an Afghan lawyer willing to represent him, and his family has been unable to access his file that includes the charges against him.

As one resident in the penitentiary said, “It doesn’t matter how big you are. If five guys want to get you, they will.”

Also please contact the Drudge report using the contact form on his homepage. Public pressure on the White House means pressure on the Karzai govt in Afghanistan.

The US-installed Afghan govt is just another Taliban!

If Obama and Hillary allow this to happen, they will answer for it before God.

“If Obama and Hillary allow this to happen, they will answer for it before God”.

...correct! Of course, God has quite a list to go over with these two, so where this particular atrocity falls is anybodys guess.
