There is so much to tell about this story. It's been a media beat up in Australia for years now but everything has been so manipulated that no one knows the real story anymore.
One thing the mainstream meadia don't like to advertise, is this guy is not actually named David Hicks anymore. He changed his name a few years back to a muslim name, but that doesn't get enough sympathy in the general community so they continue to refer to him by his birth name.
I have VERY strong beliefs on this matter and have lost a few friends by voicing my opinion.
