PROUD PARENT OF A GITMO GRADUATE
Further from the Gold Coast Sun item mentioned earlier:
Mr Hicks said David, a Muslim convert, used his time in Guantanamo Bay to study Year 11 by correspondence, and was now finishing off Year 12 …
Mr Hicks said David was looking forward to getting out of jail, but was not unhappy about being in Yatala. “At least he isn’t being dragged out of bed at all hours of the day and night and flogged, like he was in Guantanamo Bay,” he said.
The kid’s done well to get so many study hours in, what with the round-the-clock beatings and all. Given his busy schedule, it’s a wonder Dave had time to eat so much.
