In today’s Washington Post there is an article concerning U.S. Navy lawyers who are representing Ramzi Binalshibh, an alleged terrorist held in Guantanamo Bay prison camp. Here is quote from the article:
"In a sweeping brief filed late Wednesday with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, the Navy lawyers asked that the commission be found unconstitutional, arguing that "nothing about this case bears any resemblance to the orderly and regular criminal process that occurs in federal and state courts."
Attorneys for Binalshibh acknowledged that the motion was unusual and the prospects for success uncertain, but they said they felt compelled to act to draw attention to the fact that hearings continue at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, despite President Obama’s order that proceedings at the military base be temporarily halted. Obama has vowed to close the military base by January."
Now, on this day, the anniversary of the terrorist attacks on various sites in this country on 9/11 2001, we have U.S. Navy lawyers filing a motion to halt procedings against their client, an alleged terrorist, because it does not even resemble American judicial standards or procedures or law.
To state this bluntly they are trying to stop a kangaroo court run by the U.S. military from setting up their client, a certified nut who needs pharmaceutical drugs to keep himself lucid. He has been diagnosed as being deranged by medical personnel.
This is American justice?
Where is my America? Who stole it? Where is it?
I want my America back.
