Aafia Siddiqui appeared in court today and made her first public statements since she was brought here from Afghanistan 11 months ago.

This story is from AP, (here’s another from ABC News) and we have no idea what got quoted and what remained unpublished, but here’s what we get from the article:

* “I want to make peace with the United States of America,” Siddiqui said to the backs of those at the prosecution table. “I’m not an enemy. I never was.”

* A defense attorney has disputed the U.S. government’s account of what happened in Afghanistan, and a not guilty plea has been entered for Siddiqui. In court Monday, she said: “I did not shoot anybody. I didn’t fire any bullets.”

* When Johnson testified that Siddiqui had said the judge is a pawn of a Zionist conspiracy and only wants to kill her, Siddiqui turned toward spectators and nodded her head enthusiastically in apparent agreement.

* Before she left court, Siddiqui insisted she’s not paranoid or psychotic and described her fears that her statements Monday might be her last.

“It’s probably the last opportunity I’m going to get,” she said, noting the possibility she will be subjected to forced medication. “I’ve seen people on the drugs. They can’t talk.”

And then there’s this:

U.S. District Judge Richard Berman said he will rule later if she’s competent to stand trial in October. Psychologists say she’s had delusions that include seeing her three children in her cell and being visited by flying infants and dark angels.
