Sgt. Hasan Akbar, the American Muslim accused of murdering two officers and injuring 15 others in Kuwait, wrote about killing fellow soldiers in his diary.

“I suppose they want to punk me or just humiliate me. Perhaps they feel that I will not do anything about that. They are right about that. I am not going to do anything about it as long as I stay here. But as soon as I am in Iraq, I am going to try and kill as many of them as possible.

His lawyers are going to attempt an insanity defense:

His lawyers are scheduled to begin calling witnesses in their insanity defense Monday.

I wonder if they’ll call any of the imams and sheikhs who preach these concepts in every Salafist mosque in the Islamic world, and try to argue that they’re “insane.”

You can tell what they think of our music by the places we are forced to play it in. This looks like a good spot for a livestock show. -- The Mothers of Invention were opening for Cream in April of 1968 in Chicago. The place was very large and did look like it had been used for displays of cattle and other such animals.
