(June 19, 2008) America's war on terror encountered a new challenge. In a stunning decision, the Supreme Court said even suspected foreign terrorists are protected by the U.S. Constitution. Can the landmark ruling and the lesson of one man's ordeal end the legal limbo of detainees at Guantanamo Bay?

  • A bit off topic, BUT...

    CIRCULATE!

    The "Do-It-Yourself Impeachment" IS a legitimate procedure. I called several representatives offices and asked.

    Please visit my profile for more information.

    "In previous waves, over 500,000 downloads of the document represented over 1.7 million mailings".

    Given Bush's DIS-approval rating and the well over 225 million citizens old enough to vote...

    WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT!

    Copy and paste this everywhere.

  • don't try to use such logic. it's much easier and feels more righteous to just say that the center is brutal and torturous.

    another point: people who are being tortured do not go on hunger strike.

  • Lindsey Graham is one of those GOP chickenhawk, xenophobic southerner!

  • If it was a Jewish or American person that was detained by the Germans or Japanese, it's wrong? If it's being done by a US or Israeli onto anyone else, it's ok?

  • ...Rumsfeld hates AlJazeera English, Sammy was the 'Pawn' he used to intimidate them

    and any other free media!...it didn't work.

  • If these people are guilty and the US justice system works.... then why not try them?

  • i saw them playing basketball at 2:48 it can't be too bad for torture.

  • why would anyone send a journalist to gitmo? lol. It's like the Bush administration wants to be hated
