Gitmo Defendant turns Defense Attorney into a Dhimmi

The Defense Attorney for one of Guantanamo detainees has donned a hijab per her “client’s” demands. If you find yourself wondering just who’s in charge, you’re not alone.

Via the Daily Mail:

A female defense attorney, who is not Muslim, wore the traditional Islamic hijab to the military court staging the trial of five Guantanamo Bay prisoners accused of the September 11 attacks yesterday.

Cheryl Bormann, 52, who represents Walid bin Attash, said that her client had demanded she wear the clothing and insisted that other women at the hearing also wear ‘appropriate’ clothes out of respect for his religion.

Today she explained her decision at Guantanamo Bay, saying she always wears the hijab around her client.

She asked that other women follow her example so that the defendants do not have to avert their eyes ‘for fear of committing a sin under their faith’, according to Fox News.

So the prisoner has taken the attorney hostage…
