Australian Jihadi Takes the Deal

I wrote here about David Hicks, the Australian, al Qaeda trained Jihadi who has been our guest at Guantanamo for the past half decade, and closed with wondering if he would take the deal.

We need wait no longer. Hicks pled guilty to materially supporting a terrorist organization, al Qaeda. Hicks' lawyers had cynically refused the deal and delayed and delayed in the wanhope that the Australian government would be forced to demand Hicks' return. Yeah that was a good strategy with John Howard at the helm down under. Hicks, who was described as looking a little thick, apparently got tired of the wait (or the weight gain) and took the deal. He hopes to return to an Australian prison within a few months.

You can't say the guy doesn't dream big.
