- patient was in full cardiac arrest on arrival to the Emergency room.
- return of heart beat was after 20 min of CPR
- The primary injury to the brain alone can result in loss of brain functions, and loss of circulation to the brain for more than 5 minutes can result in severe brain damage. Now add both together and the 20 min loss of circulation is an underestimation here as the timing is from the time he came to emergency room. SO, he has loss of circulation for more than 20 min.
- The GCS (Glscow coma score) of 3/15 is the lowest score possible and it indicates worst prognosis
- absence of brain stem reflexes indicates loss of the basic and most essential brain functions and loss of brain stem function is essentially brain death.
- brain death is a clinical diagnosis which means there is no need for sophisticated studes like EEG to confirm it

This is not actually true in many cases. An example is the Marines who are on trial for the rape of an 14 year old Iraqi girl and murder of her family. The 1 who is now a civilian is being tried in Kentucky not Iraq where the crime was committed.

he could not finish his high-school education due to him being imprisoned during the troublesome 90s and when he did get out of jail, the Ministry of Education refused to allow him to complete his education; thus, he was limited in his job prospects.

This is another thing they should think of. Why they refused to allow him to complete his education? and what was his crime exactly? Is spending one or two years in jail not enough? Why he should pay for the rest of his life for something that he did when he was 17 or 19? and even if he was older than that doesn’t he deserve to be given another chance?

i wish i took the bullet instead of him at least i would end up dead and not see this day that a bahraini gets shot and nobody moves we should be ashamed that the killer is not yet cought

Oh stop the melodrama for God’s sake!

The authorities are treating the case very seriously and are working on it rather diligently. So wipe your tears, they’re not the thing that Abbas mostly need at this particular moment, nor does his family.

I prefer to be thrown out. A fatwa prohibiting my speech here would be even better. If you refuse to engage disagreement, you must do the work, not I. I am too lazy to self-defenestrate.

No, not “too lazy” but one that has no shame nor honour – speaking from your hated Arab perspective, that is.

Good riddance then.

This scenario makes a lot of sense because this is a Dumb Young Kid With Too Much Testosterone crime. However, the silencer seems out of place. It is a rare shooting that includes a silencer. If this shooting took place inside, a silencer is going to make the gun harder to hide and get inside. Also, a silencer is not going to silence a handgun in an enclosed place. It’s still going to be loud. Was the gun found with a silencer on it? This silencer business just seems a little too melodramatic to me. Is it in fact, true, or has this story been improved upon for drama’s sake?

That was a rich poem which certainly gives me an insight into the rage and sadness you feel about the tragedy of the current war in Iraq and all the innocent lives lost there.

May I see the one you wrote about life under Saddam?

We disagree there. I see it a different way. Mahmood, you’re basically a liberal, pro-western Arab Muslim, which is a fine thing. While you are more congenial to differing cultures than most in the Middle East and willing to be fair-minded with respect to the US, you are stilll a captive to your culture and its prejudice against America. You were a little too credulous of reports that America was to blame. The Blame America First reflex response to any stimulus has a foothold in your mind. I’m just asking for some fairness.

Mahmood: “It is that that the likes of bin Laden could never do, but one which your ilk excel at.”

Mahmood, you have caught Malik’s Syndrome, where anybody who disagrees with you is JUST LIKE BIN LADEN! Must we start the Bin Laden drinking game anew? However, unlike Bin Laden, I can assure you that I have yet to harm a fly, let alone draw blood on a fellow human. When they gave us live rabbits to eat in Air Force survival school, I could not bear to behead the bunny. My ilk has a long, long descent to make befoe we match the depths to which Bin Laden and his ilk have sunk.

Mahmood: “That said I don’t think that any conversation with you is enriching, hence, no matter how much you flap your gums, I don’t think that I shall have anything to do with you. You can find the door yourself.”

I prefer to be thrown out. A fatwa prohibiting my speech here would be even better. If you refuse to engage disagreement, you must do the work, not I. I am too lazy to self-defenestrate.
