Moussaoui: "Bush will free me and I will return to London"
ALEXANDRIA, Virginia (AP) -- Confessed al Qaeda conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui said it made his day to hear accounts of Americans' suffering from the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

Taking the witness stand for the second time in his death-penalty trial Thursday, Moussaoui mocked a Navy sailor who wept on the stand as she described the death of two of her subordinates.

"I think it was disgusting for a military person" to cry, Moussaoui said of the testimony of Navy Lt. Nancy McKeown. "She is military, she should expect people at war with her to want to kill her." Asked if he was happy to hear her sobbing, he said, "Make my day."

Moussaoui also said on cross-examination that he is convinced President Bush will free him before the end of his term and that he will return to London. Prosecutor Rob Spencer tried several times to get Moussaoui to say he didn't really believe that, but Moussaoui was insistent. "I haven't doubted it for one single second," said Moussaoui, adding that the vision came to him in a dream just like his dream of flying a plane into the White House.

7. Just one of his "dreams"...like flying a plane into the White House...
Regardless of what side of the fence people are on regarding this guy and the death penalty, I don't think ANYONE is willing to step up and say "He's NOT crazy..."

And yeah, in the long run, he may be "crazy as a fox"...or he might just be delusional, Son-of-Sam-my-dog-ordered-me-to-kill crazy.

:patriot:

4. I would love to be able to ask Moussaoui...
why he believes Bush would free him. Why, after sitting through his trial, would he still think Bush would do that?

And I think he's going to get his wish.

9. The guy is a fantasist. For example:
"...said Moussaoui, adding that the vision came to him in a dream just like his dream of flying a plane into the White House."


So it was all your idea dude? Yeah ok.

11. And that isn't proof that the guy is batshit crazy?
We are going to execute a wannabe who knew nothing because he is delusional.

Sometimes I get REALLY MIHOP and think that he was arrested just so we would have a proper scapegoat at the right time.

12. Does he believe that he did fly a plane into the White House?
"I haven't doubted it for one single second," said Moussaoui, adding that the vision came to him in a dream just like his dream of flying a plane into the White House.
