War Crimes bombshell via Hakki

[Max Sawicky]

Whie all this was going on I happened to catch
an interview O'Really did with some Brit journalist
who had been there.  He said the Northern Alliance
people were basically shooting anyone they captured
who was not Afghani.  There was also the report,
about which little has been said since, that in the
run-up to the prison rebellion where CIA guy Mike
Span was killed, prisoners were being taken out
and shot, thereby providing an obvious explanation
for an otherwise suicidal act -- the same one for
which 'Jihad Johnny' is on trial.

Speaking of the late and lamented Hakki, I'd like
to remind people he ripped me for predicting a
U.S. invasion of Iraq this year.  The way things
are going, I might have been off by only a month
or so.
