"I do want them to talk, well sing, though."

We watched this guy over the peiord of a couple of years.

Trust me - we won't hear much more out of him publicly until he spills his guts.

Names, dates, places, and things.

Who, what, where, why and when?

Exactly what HE WAS GETTING FOR THE AL QAEDA!

Well, since you asked, I searched...
From the Washington Times of 9/21/03:

"Army Sgt. Asan Akbar is accused in the March 23 attack on his fellow soldiers in Kuwait. Fifteen soldiers were wounded, two of them fatally.

He is awaiting a general court-martial trial. "

From the Cleveland Plain Dealer of 8/28/03:

"Two officers were killed and 14 were injured. Sgt. Asan Akbar, accused in the attack, awaits trial at a general court-martial. "

More as I find it...

From the Sacremento Observer on 7/16/03:

"(Headline: U.C. Davis Alum Faces Court-Martial For Attack)
Sgt. Hasan Akbar, 32, is charged with two counts of premeditated murder and three counts of attempted murder and could face the death penalty if convicted.

Maj. Gen. David Petraeus, commanding general of the 101st Airborne Division based at Fort Campbell, followed the recommendation made by an investigating officer on June 20 at the completion of an Article 32 hearing, which is akin to a civilian grand jury session."

AP Wire via www.timesleader.com (N.E. Pennsylvania) on 6/19/03:

"Command Sgt. Maj. Bart Womack testified Thursday that he took Akbar's rifle from him after Akbar was detained and placed it outside one of the tents at the crime scene.

Staff Sgt. David Maier had previously testified that casings fired from the rifle found at the crime scene matched fragments from Seifert's fatal wound. A medical examiner had testified that Seifert was fatally shot in the abdomen and Stone was killed by grenade fragments.

"I felt that was evidence, no doubt about it," Womack said.

Maj. Shawn Phillips testified Thursday that a sergeant told him that Akbar said he had deliberately targeted the leadership of the brigade because we were "going to rape the women and kill the children of the Muslim faith."

Looks like the young man is way in over his head...and will soon have an opportunity to go to Heaven and meet with his appointed 72 Virginians!
