    Default Poetic Justice In Yemen

    SAN'A, Yemen (AP) — The two young sons of a Yemeni detainee at Guantanamo died when a grenade they were playing with accidentally detonated inside their home, a human rights lawyer and the detainee's brother said Thursday.

    The two boys were the sons of Guantanamo prisoner #1463, Abdelsalam al-Hilah, a businessman who was captured in Cairo in 2002 and sent to Guantanamo on charges of terrorism, said Ahmed Irman of the Hood Organization for Defending Human Rights, an organization that advocates for Guantanamo detainees in Yemen.

    The children, Youssef, 11, and Omar, 10, were playing unsupervised with the grenade in a room in the house when it exploded. It is unclear why the grenade was in the house.

    The detainee's brother, Nabil al-Hilah, confirmed the boys were killed.

    Of course this isn't a valid source, since the story only appears to originate from AP, a major conspiracy theory operation.

    Ah yes. The death of 10 and 11 year old boys whose father happens to be being held illegally is poetic justice.

    One does have to wonder why the children had a hand grenade with which to play, especially considering their father is an ex-unlawful-non-combatant of the USA.

    There's nothing just about two kids getting blown up. It's just amusing to see the faux outrage coming off someone who gets the giggles when the people he doesn't like die.

    Nothing ad hom about it.

    You "giggle" when some people die, and get all outraged at this post.

    Both absolute, verifiable facts.

    If this bothers you, stifle your "giggle" next time.

    Dissimilar circumstances.

    I would say that it is a legitimate question of the poster, given the content of the OP.
