Australian held at Gitmo may return home - Yahoo! News

David Hicks, a former kangaroo skinner who converted to Islam and is accused of fighting for the Taliban, has been held at Guantanamo for five years without being charged, and his attorneys and family say he may have developed mental illness during his extended incarceration.
