Speculation

Wussy Australian father says his son’s bad back could be from a rifle butt.

Mr Hicks did not believe his son, who is awaiting trial on terrorism charges, had been subjected to the type of torture described in the US report.

But during a telephone conversation last month, David Hicks described how his physical health had deteriorated since he was detained in late 2001.

“He said his eye sight wasn’t too good and he’s got a terrible back,” Terry Hicks said.

“The back problem was because they didn’t give him access to a chair for a long time and he had to kneel all the time ” but it could have also been a (hit with the) butt of a rifle, who knows.”

Wow, since we’re speculating wildly, I think it was all the gay sex parties he was part of (as a wide receiver) that he attended while being a terrorist.
