"Kidnapped"? Come on. I subscribe to Glenn but skip all the "Israel is evil Hamas is good" episodes, which now is about 80% of his programming.

When a free person is taken by force from his family, held indefinitely without charge in a secret location, without access to legal aid, then kidnapping is probably the most appropriate description I can think of.

kidnapped you say? who kidnapped him? what is strange about this kidnapping is that he has 19 attorneys and most kidnapping usually doesn't involve any attorneys.

Kidnapping? Are you sure?

He was seized by government agents, without being charged with an actual crime, and transported 1000 miles away to a facility in Louisiana. It took some time before his wife and lawyers even knew where he was. If this was done to you, or a family member, yeah, I think you'd consider it kidnapping.

Seized? Or kidnapped? If he was kidnapped, it would be the first kidnapping in world history where the kidnapped person has 19 lawyers. BTW, how did he get 19 lawyers? Who is paying that legal bill? Hmmmm.

19 lawyers hardly matter if they don't know where you are and you don't have access to them.

How did they find him? Being kidnapped and all.

Obama did away with Habeas Corpus (protected by the Fifth Amendment at one time) in favor of indefinite detention. He and the government were sued by Chris Hedges and others, but the case dismissed for "lack of standing."

If you donтАЩt think the murder of Hind Rajab, or the forced, government approved, sodomization of captives, or withholding medicines so the children have to undergo amputations without anesthesia. or the destruction of an entire culture, are evil, then we have nothing more to discuss.

And if you support terrorists who strangle child hostages (Ariel and Kfir Bibas), then we have nothing more to discuss.

So, you are saying that Hamas' activities on 10/7 are evil?

I can agree with that!

No it's not. Glenn provides the OTHER side of the Israel-biased story, which you just don't like. Perhaps if you didn't outright dismiss that additional information, you might have a more nuanced and contextualized view on the matter.

That's smart @MG, you wouldn't want to open yourself up to alternate views.

I used to subscribe to Glenn and liked a lot of his content, but he lost me with his constant haranguing of Israel. It became too repetitive.
