Excerpts from transcript of detainee's tribunal
Knight Ridder Newspapershttp://www.realcities.com/mld/krwashington/10869307.htm
Q: Did you ever recommend to al Qaida to use nuclear weapons against U.S. troops?
A: Never, sir.
Q: Did you ever recommend this to anyone?
A: No, sir. I told the interrogator about this. Is a nuclear weapon something I could buy off the shelf? Can you buy it from Tony Blair? Is that something to say to anybody?
Q: Do you not consider Osama bin Laden to be al Qaida?
A: I never saw any definition of al Qaida. The first time I heard this was from President Bush who said al Qaida.
Officer: You do understand this is an administrative hearing and not a legal proceeding. ... You will be receiving more specific instructions shortly of how to bring your question to U.S. courts.
Paracha: Your honor, I have been here over 17 months. Would that be before I expire?
Officer: I would certainly hope so, especially since you are under the care of the U.S. government while you are here. ... This is a U.S. government executive decision in regards to the detention of enemy combatants.
Paracha: My question is, is your executive order applicable around the world?
Officer: It is a global war on terrorism.
Paracha: I know sir, but you are not the master of the Earth, sir.
Officer: No, but we are in a coalition with allied partners to fight this new war.
