Johnny Spann visited his son this week in Section 34 of Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia, where America's first fallen hero after 9/11 in the war in Afghanistan rests forever, with a commanding view of the Pentagon and Washington's other monuments.
Some who have known Lindh, or have spoken to officials inside the U.S. government, said leaked assessments published by Foreign Policy in 2017 by the National Counterterrorism Center and Bureau of Prisons accurately portrayed Lindh as even more radicalized than when he was captured on an Afghan battlefield in 2001.
"I hope Mr. Lindh moves on from his extremist beliefs," Hughes told ABC News,"but if he does, it'll be entirely of his own volition and not because of any systematic approach to the issue of released convicted terrorists." A soot-covered Lindh was later interviewed on video by war author Robert Young Pelton as he received medical care, and photographed by the U.S. military blind-folded and strapped naked to a stretcher, before eventually winding up in a federal court in Alexandria, Virginia, as the first detainee in the global war on terror.
"I interviewed Lindh, who had been captured with Arabic-speaking al Qaeda members. After the uprising I went down into the basement which was still littered with ammunition and weapons. The Arab-speaking survivors told me they had clustered in the back room where they had discussed what to do the next day. I found grenades tied with shoe laces so they could hang them around their crotch area to avoid being found when searched," Pelton recalled in an interview on Wednesday.
The red MAGA hats are just a decoy for Trump to pretend he’s an American patriot. All of his actions and activities say otherwise. Trump’s blatant allegiance to Putin and other murderous dictators has been noted by the entire world. TrumpForProfitOnly
That American Taliban lover should have been put to death in the first place.we have no place here for traitors or terrorists and this unAmerican is both. Time we get tougher on the most serious criminals & more lenient in the least offenders. No sympathy for murderers at all.⚖️
This man who’s name I won’t repeat no longer has any ties to this great nation, he sold his soul to Satan(allah) and should be banished for life” did you exchange a walk on part in a war for a lead role in a cage?” Floyd!
Trump can't do anything. This guy was convicted and sentenced by a Judge and law. He served 17 years of a 20 year sentence. Why did he get early release? Parole board
Sorry - no can do. He will have served his time and he will be a free man again. Dreadful thought isn’t it.

‘This is unfathomable’: American shoe brands unite against TrumpMore than 170 footwear companies signed a letter sent to President Trump urging him to not go ahead with extra tariffs on $300 billion of Chinese goods. The letter was signed by footwear industry heavyweights such as Nike, Adidas, Crocs, and Under Armour, among others. They want cheap labor. That's no surprise. Trump just wants Americans to have jobs. They were united against him even before the trade dispute. They could care less about other companies and state sponsored IP theft from China as long as they are not affected
