He goes by the codename, Stashiu, to protect his identity. He served as an Army nurse at Gitmo and spent several months interacting with a number of terrorists. He’s been interviewed by Patterico and you don’t want to miss his story.
I know Zarqawi, the terrorist said to the American. I am going to have Zarqawi cut off your family’s head while you watch. Then he will cut off your head.
The terrorist said it all in a matter-of-fact way, looking the American straight in the eye.
The American was not frightened. There was little danger that the terrorist was going to carry out his threat . . . at least any time soon.
The terrorist was a detainee at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, and the American was an Army nurse who worked with Guantánamo detainees with psychological and/or behavioral problems. For six months, he spoke with detainees on a daily basis, and built a rapport of sorts with some of the most troublesome terrorists at Guantánamo.
The interview is a 5-part series that will run over the course of the week. Looks like I’ll be popping over to Patterico’s Pontifications a little more often this week, see you there. Sgt Hook out.
