My Heart Bleeds |

My heart bleeds, part 505
No, it's not the poor Saddam this time, Hajji Bashir Noorzai who's
currently languishing in the high security section of the Metropolitan
Correctional Center in Manhattan. Noorzai is an Afghan warlord accused
of conspiracy in the late 1990s to sell $50 million's worth of heroin in
the United States in order to buy weapons for the Taliban.
[oh? And here I thought the Taliban had cracked down on heroin
production, and it only came back after the US invasion - FRS]
[this guy was probably the inspiration for the Law & Order episode,
except that they moved him up in time and had him working for the US -
FRS]
Noorzai's lawyer, Stephen M. Goldenberg, is now complaining about the
conditions at the Metro Manhattan gulag. He wants his client out of a 23
hours-a-day lockdown "so he can properly pray with other Muslim
prisoners... Isolated in a damp cell since his capture in April, Bashir
Noorzai has trouble determining the direction of Mecca during his daily
prayers." Says Goldenberg: "He's disoriented. He doesn't know where east
is."
That's apparently not all; Noorzai is also not getting enough to eat and
he has lost 30 pounds so far on the prison diet. Because Metro doesn't
prepare halal food, Noorzai is being fed - horror of horrors - kosher,
instead.
There is only one solution to this travesty and mistreatment.
Send Noorzai to Guantanamo.
It might be humid, but is not damp; each cell has an arrow pointing in
the direction of Mecca to assist in prayer orientation; and all the
detainees actually gain weight - 13 pounds on average, to be exact
(here's the Gitmo menu (in PDF), hat tip: Roger Simon).

"accused". So much for the justice system of this country following the
constitution.

Oh, for crying out loud, he was only arrested last April. Of course he's
being held without bail. Duh.

I wonder how much money some of our government officals are making off
the current drug traffic in Afghanistan?
