Accused Al Qaeda operative can’t be jailed indefinitely, appeals court rules
LA Times
Excerpt
WASHINGTON — In a setback for the Bush administration, a federal appeals court ruled Monday that an alleged Al Qaeda operative arrested in the United States and detained in military custody for four years cannot be held as an enemy combatant….”This is a landmark ruling for all individuals in this country, rejecting the administration’s unprecedented assertion that it can treat the entire world, including the United States, as a battlefield and jail people for life without charge and without trial simply because he labels them enemy combatants,” said Jonathan L. Hafetz, litigation director of the Liberty & National Security Project at the New York University School of Law and al-Marri’s lead counsel.
Habeas corpus, which is used to challenge imprisonment and enforce due-process rights, “is what stands between the United States and a police state,” Hafetz said.
HLs Take
I heard one of the MSM Bushlickers yesterday call it “The so called Habeas Corpus Law” trying to delegitimize one of the backbones of The US Constitution. Typical whore media, they get paid a couple of hundred thousand a year to sell out their country, and it’s people. This ruling is a victory for Everyone in The U.S. except Bush, slowly the courts are realizing that Bush only cares about making the US into an Orwellian nightmare, for the sole purpose to have all the power so no one can stop is endless wars for oil, and global domination. The pendulum is starting to swing back the other way on this 21st Century Hitler, and just in the nick of time.

If they’re really guilty and we can prove it, habeas isn’t going to set them free. Why are people so afraid of habeas…maybe they don’t really care if they’re catching the right people, they just want to appease idiots like CCV who feel entitled to revenge. Like a good Christian…

CCV, you are pathetically perverted and twisted up. Your petty arguments are so obtuse and familiar. Is your AKA Buck?
Hagee and Olmert own your spiny ass! Take your dribble to “Little Green Footballs” and hear the cheers because at this site you come across as a complete buffoon and moron.
I’m waiting for you to accuse me of being a Dem or liberal, so go ahead and make an ass of yourself again. After reading your posts I’ve come to realize that you belong in the Guantanamo’s of the world, (along with Bush and associates) and this world would be a better and safer place for everyone. Get it?
