Por LARA JAKES | A administração de Obama pode revamp e reiniciar o sistema experimental militar da Bush-era para terroristas suspeitados enquanto se esforça para determinar o fate dos detidos prendidos na baía de Guantanamo e para cumprir um pledge para fechar a prisão por janeiro. O movimento promoveria atrasa experimentações do terrorismo e, acoplado com comentários recentes por ESTADOS UNIDOS. oficiais militares e legais, quantidades a uma admissão pública pela equipe do presidente Barack Obama que entregar nessa promessa é um dito mais fácil do que feito. Quase imediatamente depois de fazer exame do escritório, Obama suspendeu o sistema do tribunal e requisitou uma revisão de 120 dias dos argumentos de encontro aos 241 homens que estão sendo prendidos na prisão da marinha em Cuba. Que a revisão estêve suposta para terminar maio 20. Mas dois ESTADOS UNIDOS. os oficiais ditos sábado a administração querem uma extensão three-month. Atrasa os meios que a ação legal exemplos nos detidos' continuaria a ser congelada. Nenhuns dos ESTADOS UNIDOS. os oficiais foram autorizados discutir atrasam publicamente e falaram na condição do anonymity. Um oficial disse a administração de Obama de planeamento usar o momento extra de pedir que o Congress tweak o sistema militar existente dos tribunais que foi criado para os detidos. Críticos do presidente anterior George W. Bush, que empurrou o Congress para o criar, disse os ESTADOS UNIDOS violated sistema. lei porque limita direitas legais dos detidos'. Agora, enfrentado com fins do prazo aparecendo e poucas respostas para que onde transfira os detidos, a administração de Obama pode manter o sistema do tribunal - com algumas mudanças. Perguntado em uma audição do Senate última semana se a administração abandonasse o sistema de Guantanamo, portas de Robert da secretária da defesa respondeu: “De modo nenhum.” “Os commissions estão muito muito ainda na tabela,” as portas ditas, adicionando que nove detidos de Guantanamo estão sendo tentados já em tribunais militares. As portas alluded também ao pedido provável da administração para que o Congress tweak à lei que criou o sistema legal de Guantanamo. “Deve haver todas as mudanças à lei militar do commission, se a decisão for feita para reter os commissions militares?” pediu rhetorically. O suporte do Attorney General Eric foi mais mais em um hearing recente da casa, provérbio que os commissions das forças armadas ainda poderiam ser usados mas “seja diferente daqueles que estavam previamente no lugar.” Although as many as one-third of the detainees will be released or sent to other nations for trial, Holder said the administration is considering how to prosecute the rest of them. “We’ll be making, again, individualized determinations about where — for that group of people who should be tried, where they should be tried,” Holder testified. Among the options he described were “military tribunals that have significant changes made to the manner in which they would be conducted.” The administration has never dismissed the possibility of using the tribunal system to try the suspected al-Qaida, Taliban and other foreign fighters swept up and ultimately held at Guantanamo after the Sept. 11 attacks. But administration officials have said they hoped to try many in U.S. federal courts, relying on civilian prosecutors instead of on the military law. Among the planned changes to the law, both officials said Saturday, would be limits on the evidence used against the detainees. Much of the evidence compiled against at least some of the detainees is classified and cannot be used in civilian courts without exposing the secret material. The potential 90-day delay was first reported in Saturday’s editions of The New York Times. Human rights and civil liberties groups immediately criticized the idea. “To revive a fatally flawed system that was specifically designed to evade due process and the rule of law would be a grave error and a huge step backward,” Jameel Jaffer, a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union. Since Obama ordered the prison closed, Republicans have seized on the issue of where the detainees will go — and the new Democratic administration lack of a plan to deal with them. “Closing Guantanamo is not a good option if no safe alternatives exist,” Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., said in a statement Saturday. Paul F. Rothstein, a Georgetown University legal ethics professor, said the dilemma highlights differences between campaign rhetoric and the realities of the courtroom. “Once you become president and see the whole panoply of issued that you face, some of the things that seemed easy to promise or talk about during the campaign sometimes appear more difficult,” Rothstein said Saturday. “Elections are fought on big slogans without much nuance or detail. I think we want a president who responds to what he sees when he actually gets in there and sees the whole picture, rather than one who adheres rigidly to what he said before.” Source: AP News Have Your Say: Officials: Gitmo court system likely to stay open Please read our posting guidelines before posting.
