Another one of those "prove you are innocent!" allegations. I thought
people were innocent until proven guilty...

No, that was in the old days. All the prisoners in the Guantanamo Camp

have
to prove they are not guilty of terrorism to get out. And though it might
not be fair in every individuel case, this new imperial law seems to work
better in general, since less criminals escape justice. ;-(

Er, Ivar, those people in Guantanamo weren't just going about their normal
business when they were picked up. IIRC, they were shooting at American
soldiers, so that sort of implies some guilt! Have you forgotten that those
people aren't "criminals" but were fighting a war--but not dressed in the
uniform of any army?

I'd be more confidant of the motivation if there was proof of this
deposit into an escrow account.


The article said the payout was being withheld. The same article also said the
money had been deposited in an account but not yet released to Armstrong. I'm
much more cynical about the accuracy of published news reports than most but I
have to wonder- if you accept without further proof the accuracy of the report
that the payout is being withheld then why do you demand further proof of an
escrow account and what form of "proof" do you envision? I'm fairly certain
they won't be publishing any copies of deposit receipts. g
