Court: US Can Jail Civilians Indefinitely

A federal appeals court has ruled President Bush can order the indefinite jailing of civilians imprisoned in the United States. The five-to-four decision effectively reverses last year's ruling that the administration cannot label US residents "enemy combatants" and jail them indefinitely without charge. The ruling came in the case of the only person still held as an enemy combatant on US soil. Ali al-Marri was arrested six years ago at his home in Peoria, Illinois, where he lived with his wife and five children. He was initially charged with credit card fraud and lying to federal agents. But in June 2003, President Bush declared him an enemy combatant and ordered him into military custody. He has spent the last four years in solitary confinement at a Navy brig in Charleston, South Carolina. Al-Marri's attorney Jonathan Hafetz said, "This decision means the president can pick up any person in the country—citizen or legal resident—and lock them up for years without the most basic safeguard in the Constitution, the right to a criminal trial."

  • we've become a dictatorship... i cant believe it, and yet it's so believable

  • *Yawn Ad hominem.

    So how hard did your dad rape you when you were a kid? Hard enough by the sounds of it to become a confused neo-con like Foley, lol. You really should stop beating your wife and stop being a hater of non-whites, because when it comes down to it you have very little balls, like any other checkered-pant neo-con.

    Hehe nope you failed, try again. Or just give up, 'cause you got no hard facts, bitch ass nigga! :P

  • pt 2) and marxism doesn't mean you are poor, or can't grow,. it will ensure middle class, no poverty, no rich tycoon.

    Don't you want that?

    It doesn't mean waiting in lines for food, you get paid, and pay different taxes, not federal tax, or property tax.

    no mortgage, you always have your home.

  • y-o-u l-o-s-e-

    you can't argue anything. You can only compare communism to Stalin, you know nothing of the Proletariats movement, nothing of leftists, you know nothing.

    You can only make ad hominem attacks.

    Cause you have no education.

    Go read on it, before you knock it.

    it makes sense, putting it into practice will be hard, as communism never was given fair chance with honest leaders, they went corrupt.

    We need to go back to the beginning, the planet is what I care about.

  • HAhahahahahahahahahaaha. Whatever.
