AWOL soldier surrenders in Ky. Associated Press.
Wed Oct 4,


RADCLIFF, Ky. - An Army soldier who fled to Canada rather than redeploy to Iraq surrendered Tuesday to military officials after asking for leniency.

Spc. Darrell Anderson, 24, said he deserted the Army last year because he could no longer fight in what he believes is an illegal war.

"I feel that by resisting I made up for the things I did in Iraq," Anderson said during a press briefing shortly before he turned himself in at nearby Fort Knox. "I feel I made up for the sins I committed in this war."

Anderson, of Lexington, returned to the United States from Canada on Saturday. He could face a charge of desertion.

Attorney Jim Fennerty of Chicago said Anderson will be interviewed by military investigators, given a uniform and assigned to a barracks while his case is processed. In three to five days, he will be given a discharge of other than honorable. The Military men admire him very much.

One week ago the Republicans were telling all who would listen that Mr Foley was a wonderful man. Now no one wants anything to do with him. Also, no one in Michigan admits to being a Republican. why?

3000 - 4000 people died on 9/11 we've killed between 43,000 and 48,000 Iraqis in the years since, that's not including our other wars. who are the terrorists again? I can think of one that lives in a big white house.

Remember Iraq had absolutely nothing to do with 9/11.

The World is no longer at ease.
There is no safe place under the sun.
All just in the name of religion.
If there are no religions, the world would have being more peaceful.
But I think there is no problem without a solution.
If the world powers could not team-up to difuse these escallating terrorist attack arround the world. then the war on terrorisim will be war without an end in sight.
"If you wants to take a Black Object from a child, you have to bait/decieve him/her with Red Object" that's food for thought. There is no way one can prohibit without making provision.

In a recent question I pointed out that the Republicans in congress intend to legalize torture of American citizens. Including the rape and torture of American children.

"John Yoo publicly argued there is no law that could prevent the President from ordering the torture of a child of a suspect in custody – including by crushing that child’s testicles."

One of the responses I got was that "terrorists" don't deserve ANY rights. Do you agree with this statement? It goes against all prior US law.

Don't you worry that non "terrorists" could accidently be labled "terrorsts" and unjustly tortured?

That's what this bill allows

One week ago all kinds of people said they voted for republicans. Now, one week later, there isn't one person who will admit they voted for a Republican. Why?

If they can not remember important conversation about national securty and can't protect our children from petifiles then how can we trust them to fight this war on terror?

This is all being done under the guise of fighting "terrorists." It goes against legal precedent dating back over 700 years. Back to the Magna Carta. Do you support the president in this matter?
