Среда 22-ое июль 2008 Обсудите этот рапорт в форумах RINF > J. Кэрол. Williams | Воинское судья говорит некоторые заявления Salim Ahmed Hamdan, водителем для Осама Бен Ладен, было сделано в установках `высоки коэрцитивных'. Оно смогло установить стандарт в другие случаи. ВАШИНГТОН - воинское судья надзирая первые военных преступления пробные против подозреваемого террорисма на заливе Guantanamo согласилось понедельник к адвокатскому сословию некоторое доказательство против водителя ящика Osama Laden бывшего потому что он был получен в «высоки коэрцитивных окружающих средах и условиях.» На день отверстия пробы, Capt военно-морского флота. J. Кейт. Allred отказало воззвания обороны для того чтобы исключить другие заявления Salim Ahmed Hamdan сделанное во время расспрашивания США. вещества в Афганистане также, как во время его больше чем 6 лет' заточения на заливе Guantanamo, Кубе. Судья сказало он задержит суждение на расспрашивании мая 2003 до тех пор пока оборона не иметь время рассмотреть 600 страниц показателей задержанием, которые правительство не окантовать до воскресенья - за ночу до пробы. Исключение доказательства Allred учитывало после того как оно coerced было в состоянии установить стандарт для приемлемости в другие случаи военных преступления должные перед трибуналом в приходя месяцах, включая то из собственн-провозглашенное cSept. mastermind 11. «Интересы правосудия не послужены путем впускать эти заявления из-за высоки коэрцитивных окружающих сред и условий под они были сделаны,» Allred сказанное заявлений сделанного Hamdan пока после того как они придержали США. усилия в афганских аванпостах Panjshir и Bagram. Во время его заточения на Bagram, Hamdan сообщено было побито, лишено сна и сообщено другими пленниками и предохранителями которые по крайней мере одному подозреваемому побило настолько плох что он умер. Allred управляя для того чтобы подавить coerced свидетельствование было в состоянии сделать его трудно для других судей трибунала проигнорировать подобные заявки, such as в аргументы против признанное cSept. 11 mastermind Khalid Shaikh Mohammed и 4 другого смотрят на штраф смерти. Mohammed одним из 2 пленников Guantanamo известных быть waterboarded пока в custody C I A зарубежом. Метод, который создает шумиху тонуть, был посчитан tantamount попытать много США. союзники, знатоки права и защитники прав человека. Hamdan, Yemeni которое заработало $200 месяц управляя Бен Ладен в Афганистане, было захващено в ноябре 2001. He is charged with conspiracy and material support for terrorism, and faces up to life imprisonment if convicted by the jury — actually, a military commission made up of six senior officers and an alternate. Allred had been asked by Hamdan’s defense team to suppress numerous statements the defendant made under questioning after his capture near Kandahar, including two videotaped interrogations. The judge said he would allow the videos to be played for the commissioners when testimony gets underway later this week. But he agreed to exclude other statements made before Hamdan’s May 2002 transfer from Afghanistan field prisons to the Guantanamo detention center for terrorism suspects. Aside from withholding judgment on the May 2003 interrogation pending the defense review, the judge said interrogation results would be allowed into evidence only if the interrogators who conducted the sessions were available for cross-examination. Much of the evidence the government wanted to introduce was drawn from interrogations in which the notes and records of those involved were destroyed. The tribunal’s chief prosecutor, Army Col. Lawrence Morris, said he hadn’t decided whether to appeal the ruling. “We need to evaluate . . . to what extent it has an impact on our ability to fully portray his criminality in this case, but also what it might set out for future cases,” Morris told the Associated Press. Hamdan’s trial is expected to take about three weeks. He has indicated at times that he may boycott the proceedings, and has made conflicting statements as to what degree he will allow his Navy lawyer, Lt. Cmdr. Brian Mizer, to represent him in his absence. Hamdan testified during pretrial hearings last week that he was subjected to sleep deprivation, solitary confinement and sexual humiliation during interrogations at Guantanamo. Allred largely rejected motions to dismiss statements made during interrogations there, saying the techniques employed by detention officials could be “rationally related to good order and discipline.” Officers of the Joint Task Force that runs the prison and interrogation network at Guantanamo said Hamdan was deprived of “comfort items” such as personal hygiene products as punishment for violating camp rules. Hamdan is the first of nearly 800 men brought to Guantanamo over the last 6 1/2 years to face trial in the first U.S.-administered war crimes cases since World War II. About 265 remain at the sprawling compound of maximum-security prisons, open-air cells and a barracks-like facility for a few dozen of the most cooperative prisoners. Most of the others have been repatriated. War crimes charges have been sworn out against 21 Guantanamo prisoners over the last 18 months. Of those prisoners, 11 have been arraigned. All but two, Hamdan and Canadian Omar Khadr, have indicated they will refuse to attend their trials as a show of contempt for a process they say is inherently stacked against them. Thirteen potential jurors were brought to Guantanamo over the weekend. During questioning, several indicated that they carried emotional scars from the Sept. 11 attacks, which killed or endangered friends and colleagues. The Pentagon was one of the targets. The six jurors and one alternate were sworn in Monday. At least two potential jurors appeared to have been excluded because of their raw feelings associated with Sept. 11.

Hypocrisy of the “Repatriate Omar Khadr to Canada” Movement
As soon as the Gitmo interrogation tape of Omar Khadr hit the Internet, the blogosphere was flooded with demands to repatriate him to Canada. This wave is reminiscent of a Soviet campaign to free Luis Corvalán from the “fascist regime” of Augusto Pinochet thirty five years ago. The scenario is strikingly similar. A “victim” held by “fascist regimes” this time run by Bush and Harper, and a public outcry for justice. Except for the fact that Luis Corvalán didn’t kill anyone and didn’t fight for a terrorist group that wants to impose Sharia.
The “repatriate Khadr” crowd describes him as “a child”, “a kid”, “a boy”, and even “a torture victim”, with no facts to substantiate the torture claims notwithstanding. They complain about Khadr being mistreated, again, without anything to back up their claims. Some of them are outraged about “child abuse.” And they all scream for justice.
They want justice? OK, let’s talk about JUSTICE. What about justice for Sgt. First Class Christopher J. Speer, who was (according to an eyewitness) murdered by this “child”? What about justice for Tabitha Speer, who is a widow because of this “kid”? What about justice for Taryn and Tanner Speer, who are left without a father by this “a boy”? And what about all those Afghani civilians and NATO troops who are a little bit safer because this “torture victim” is behind bars? How many of these “repatriate Khadr” hypocrites concern themselves with justice for real victims? In literally hundreds of posts, we couldn’t find a single one.
One would ask, what is the reason for this idiocy? The answer is simple. Ignorance. Complete and utter ignorance. Let’s forget for a second that Omar Khadr killed Christopher Speer. Let’s forget that Khadr’s father was an al Qaeda financier. Let’s forget that Khadr’s family is known for it being al Qaeda sympathizers. Let’s just remember what this “child” was fighting for in Afghanistan.
This is what Taliban-imposed Sharia looks like in real life: http://muslimsagainstsharia.blogspot.com/2000/07/hypocrisy-of-repatriate-omar-khadr-to.html
Why don’t all of you, bleeding heart demagogues go to Afghanistan and spend a day in a Taliban-controlled territory? And let’s talk about Khadr when you get back. If you get back.
