Ok, so they've downgraded the charges to "Providing material support to terrorism" and set a hearing date. Is the massive downgrade due to lack of evidence? Probably. If so, does the military commission have enough evidence to prove guilt on the lesser charge? I hope so, 'cause it'll get real ugly otherwise.

I'd wager there'll be a guilty verdict on the PMSTT charge, but that the sentence handed down will be only little more than the five years he's already served.

Even if he isn't guilty, I can not possibly imagine a Not Guilty verdict. It would further undermine the whole GITMO thing beyond belief.
