In a recent Newsmax column, John Leboutillier wonders what's happening with the hundreds of "material witnesses" detained by the fed. gov't in its post-Sep 11 investigations. Are they being held in isolation and, one way or another, being forced to cough up what they know? Has anyone heard any indications?

A FReeper told me via e-mail where a number of them were being detained. I don't think it's wise to reveal it here.

They are each sitting on stools with lights focused in their eyes as investigators continually address them as "Abner Louima" and force them to cough up furballs.
I think.

I understand that it's not wise to reveal a location, but can you say whether you got a sense that some serious - and fruitful - interrogation is happening?

Of greater import, where are the rest of Osama's zombie killers? In your town? On your street?

They are being held in a pig rendering plant in Arkansas.

All your detainee are belong to us. We will gain their technological and operational knowledge and add it to own. Resistance is futile...(hope it's not just a happy dream)

I think they're being used as "miner's canaries" to test for the presence of anthrax in all those little envelopes of white powder being mailed around the country.

What's happening to the 600+ detained? Where are they being kept? What's being done with/to them? They have all been forced into "fornication" with Maxine Waters with Hillary waiting in the wings. They are about to crack.

That's just wrong...even for terrorists.

That's just wrong...even for terrorists. But that is why we did NOT formally declare war, these guys are not protected under the Geneva Convention. I am sure under the GC my solution would be considered a crime against humanity. LOL

my own personal thought is that they`re being tied down and getting kicked in the yam bag till they talk

On Fox last night it was made clear that there are only a few material witnesses being held. Most are visa infractions, some big some small, but that is the reason most are being held. Only a few have been shown to be connected in any way to 9/11 or terorist cells.
