Gholan Ruhani claimed his innocence after coalition forces nabbed his butt along with a drug-trafficking militia commander. He was sent to Gitmo in Cuba and was represented by Rebecca Dick, a white shoe lawyer. Ruhani claimed to be a "simple shopkeeper who helped Americans."

"None expresses any interest in harming the U.S.," she claimed. "Most affirmatively express support for the Karzai government; the others simply do not want to think about or discuss politics."
If by "helping Americans" he meant killing them, then he was telling the truth.
A few days ago, former Al Gore media, Al Jazeera, got hold of Ruhani along with his fellow scumwafer in the presidential palace in Kabul while announcing the formation of an Islamic emirate. Ruhani recited the Qu'ran as he cradled an American "helping tool" known as an automatic rifle as he also spoke of his time at Gitmo.
Ms. Dick worked for Dechert, LLP, a high-end law firm, and represented Ruhani and advocated for his repatriation to Afghanistan, claiming in a 2008 interview that her clients were not extremists, just a couple of Qu'ran-thumping religious guys.

They actually only want peace and will get it when all of their enemies are dead, and that includes everyone who fail to be Qu'ran-thumpers.
Dick's statements were squarely at odds with Defense Departments assessments, which were now proven true by witnessing Ruhani's role in the collapse of the Ghani government. Ruhani has been connected to the Taliban's intelligence outfit seen in government reports, which highlighted his family ties to senior Taliban leaders, and they correctly anticipated that he would join terrorist organizations if released.

Dick no longer works to free terrorists; she has retired, but had represented seven Gitmo detainees while working at Dechert's Washington, D.C. offices. She also represented Amir Handjani [aka Amir Handjobie], and Iranian-American and Quincy Institute fellow.
Handjani threatened to sue the Washington Free Beacon for defamation in its coverage of his role as an adviser to a sheikh who rules one of the seven UAE with tyrannical power.
Ruhani has clear inconsistencies between him and the DoD's evidence against him. He admitted to doing certain "menial" tasks for the Taliban intelligence in Kabul--which should have been enough to shoot him in the crotch--but insisted his main occupation was working in the family electronics store in Ghazni, a city about 100 miles southeast of Kabul.
But he never mentioned that his brother-in-law is Qari Ahmadullah, the Taliban's intelligence chief who is much cooked for, if not loved, by Ruhani's sister.
A DoD report noted that Ruhani worked in the operations department of the Taliban's intelligence arm and concluded that he was able to share information about the Taliban's intelligence infrastructure [don't get the Democrats started], operations methods, and communications with intel officials.
The report stated that Ruhani "would probably join [anti-coalition militia] groups dedicated to attacking US and coalition forces in Afghanistan if released."
Lawyering on behalf of Guantanamo detainees was a cause célèbre for much of the legal establishment during the War on Terror. Dick is one of numerous corporate lawyers, scholars, and monied industry groups, including the American Bar Association, that counseled and advocated for the detainees.
Dick was at the Washington, D.C., Ritz Carlton in 2007 to accept a Beacon of Justice Award from the National Legal Aid and Defender Association, given in recognition of Dechert's work on behalf of prisoners at Guantanamo.
Congratulations, lefties and Dick. You did a fine job of freeing these PsOS so they could go out and kill Afghans and allied military.
And you did it Pro Bono.
