議会はGuantánamo解放に抵抗する

5月12日火曜日のTh 2009年

立法者がGuantánamo 「私達の近隣のテロリスト解放に対して抗議の上でampedと同時に」、のフランスはグループが17人の中国のUighursの解放のために米国を押し続けた人権およびGuantánamoの「取り除かれた」囚人を受け入れることに同意した。 政府は国家安全保障へ脅威であると宣言しなかった。

民主党導かれた家の予算委員会は先週イラクおよびアフガニスタンの戦争に資金を供給するために法案を可決したが、Barack Obama大統領が刑務所を閉め、240人の囚人の再配置を始めるために要求した$50以上,000,000を除去した。

両方の党の立法者はことをObamaの管理の現在Guantánamoを閉め、されるものが詳しく述べるための計画収容者と要求した。

共和党の立法者は問題が国家安全保障のObamaの弱さの例である言い、米国をことを危険にさらすことの大統領を訴えた。 市民。 それらは「あらゆる米国にGuantánamoの移動囚人を禁止するアメリカの行為からのたくわえテロリストとよばれた立法を」の提案した。 受け入れ国の知事および立法府によって承認されて設備。

「私達の要素近隣のこれらのテロリストがほしいと思わない」、は家の院内総務ジョンA.を言った。 Boehnerのオハイオ州からの共和党員。

何人かの民主党員はまた言っている彼らの共和党員をほしいと思わない彼らの状態または地区のGuantánamoの囚人が結合した。

政府関係者は抑留者がどこに行くが、米国考えを拒絶したか言わなかった。 市民は1月までに刑務所の閉鎖からの危険に直面する。

「私達は」エリックH.司法長官危険な状態この国の人々の安全を置こうとは思っていない。 ホールダーJr。 議会聴聞会を言った。

何人かの観測者は、Guantánamoの抑留者に対する議会のpushbackで、立法者が合成している囚人の2つの別々のグループを現われたと言った: それらが米国に脅威を与えないので解放のために取り除かれた人。 国家安全保障および米国で引き留められる他の人。 裁判にかけることができないが、考えられるかだれによってが連邦政府裁判所の試験を待つことは、または解放するには余りにも危ない。

前の部門に米国17人の中国の民族のUighursはある。 姿勢をセキュリティ上の問題言わない、しかしだれがGuantánamo湾の7年以上間充満なしで引き留められた。 継続的だった延滞は1月の連邦区裁判所によって不法見つけられた。

裁判所は米国に解放されたUighursを発注した。 それらが苦悶の脅威がそこにある中国に戻すことができないので、そして他の国がそれらを受け入れることに同意しなかったので。 But a U.S. Appeals Court reversed that decision when it held that federal courts have no jurisdiction over immigration law and thus are powerless to order the men released into the U.S. even if their continued detention is illegal.

The Uighurs’ lawyers, including the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR), a legal advocacy group, has asked the Supreme Court to hear the case.

In a friend-of-the-court brief filed May 8, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) joined the CCR’s plea.

Jennifer Chang Newell, a staff attorney with the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project, said, “The Constitution requires that where a federal court has found a detainee’s imprisonment to be illegal, the court must have the power to order his release – including release into the United States when necessary to end the unlawful detention.”

“Permitting the government to hold these men indefinitely violates the Constitution and threatens to render habeas corpus a dead letter,” she said.

Uighurs are a Turkic ethnic group living in Eastern and Central Asia.

In related developments, the government announced that two long-imprisoned Guantánamo detainees would soon be released.

As indicated by French President Nicolas Sarkozy during President Obama’s recent visit to Europe, France will take in one Guantánamo detainee who has been held prisoner by the U. S. at Guantánamo since 2002.

Lakhdar Boumediene, 43, was arrested along with five other Algerians in 2001 in Bosnia, suspected in a bomb attack plot against the U.S. embassy in Sarajevo. A U.S. federal judge ruled in November that the evidence against Boumediene was not credible and ordered him set free.

Boumediene is well known in legal circles because it was in his name that civil liberties attorneys argued at the U.S. Supreme Court the most recent case of prisoners’ right to seek their release through habeas corpus petitions. The court ruled in favor of the detainees in the case, Boumediene v. Bush.

The detainee the U.S. government has now agreed to release is Ayman Batarfi, 38, a Yemeni surgeon who reportedly treated al-Qaeda wounded at Tora Bora in Afghanistan. The government’s decision came as part of a case-by-case review ordered by President Barack Obama to empty the prison camps here by January 2010.

Batarfi had told a military review panel in 2005 that he was a humanitarian worker who found himself at the battle of Tora Bora in 2001 while Osama bin Laden was in the area, according to a Pentagon transcript. He said he did not respect the al-Qaeda leader, whom he called “a coward.”

Batarfi is the third detainee whose release has been ordered during the Obama administration. In addition to Boumediene and Batarfi, an Ethiopian-born British resident, Binyam Mohamed, was sent back to Britain a month into the Obama administration.

Along with five other Guantánamo detainees, Mohamed has filed lawsuits both in the U.S. and Britain.

In the U.S., he is suing a subsidiary of the Boeing company, Jeppesen Dataplan, for being complicit with the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in facilitating his rendition and torture. While the government invoked the so-called state-secrets privilege to keep the case out of court, a federal appeals court has ruled that the suit should proceed.

His British lawsuit charges that British intelligence services cooperated with U.S. authorities in his rendition and torture. The suit has caused a diplomatic furor in Britain, where the foreign secretary, David Miliband, intimated that evidence of British complicity had to be kept secret under threat from the U.S. to stop sharing intelligence with Britain if details were disclosed in court.

But the British High Court announced last week that it will reopen its judgment that details of the torture of the former Guantánamo Bay detainee must be kept secret. Clive Stafford Smith, director of the legal charity Reprieve, one of Mohamed’s attorneys, told IPS, “It is long past time that this evidence was made public. How can it be that two governments that purport to uphold the rule of law be working together to cover up crimes committed against Binyam Mohamed?” In the Batarfi case, a major factor in the decision of the Justice Department was a federal judge’s finding that the government improperly withheld important psychiatric records of a government witness who was used in a “significant” number of Guantánamo cases.

The judge said the government had censored parts of the records, showing that the witness, a fellow detainee, was being treated for a serious psychological problem. That witness provided information in the government’s case for detaining Batarfi.

There are nearly 100 Yemenis among the approximately 240 Guantánamo captives. Bush administration officials never succeeded in negotiating a repatriation agreement for those who had been earlier approved for release.
