Obama Wins the Right to Detain People with No Habeas Review

May 23rd, 2010

Via: Salon:

Today, a three-judge panel of the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals adopted the Bush/Obama position, holding that even detainees abducted outside of Afghanistan and then shipped to Bagram have no right to contest the legitimacy of their detention in a U.S. federal court, because Boumediene does not apply to prisons located within war zones (such as Afghanistan).

    the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals judges have been well trained to discern right from wrong.
    i am sure that they would concur that WAR IS PEACE, FREEDOM IS SLAVERY, and IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.
