Thanks for this. Notice that the names from the top to about 24 are alleged JI members. Did Uncle Sam haul up our envoy in Washington when they were picked up?

Hi Bantam, didn’t have that much time to check on what you mentioned when posting this coz I had to get ready and rush for the Bukit Aman gathering. Anywayz, what I do know is that the ‘nuclear’ bloke (BSA Tahir) got released a couple of months ago. He’s the person implicated by the CIA as having business with Scomi (AAB’s son) and was arrested by the government for dealing with the supply of aluminium centrifuges which can be used for uranium enrichment. And I thought that perhaps Kamunting was an extended option for CIA rendition sites.
There are at least two Malaysians in Guantanamo but AAB didn’t discuss it with GWB in 2006. Quid pro quo for the son’s sake? – shar101.

Well Well Well… it seems that ISA detentions have been going all along,
almost every year.. but only now do we hear CRIES of how draconian it is..
Why? Because of Hindraf?.. RPK? and Kok?
What were these people doing when they planned to give resounding victories to BN all these years despite ISA arrests..
PAS were the only and the most hard hit sufferers of this draconian law..
no one bothered.. but ISA now only comes into picture because it pinches THEM!

Hi Zed, yesterday at the Kelana Jaya stadium, AI announced that when PR becomes the new federal government, all ‘political’ detainees will be released. Hence, in my mind, the ISA may remain in effect for other(?) purposes which shouldn’t be the case in a democratic nation – shar101.
