If the requirements of the Federal Criminal Procedure are not obserwed,the judges hawe the right to dismiss the case onFORMAL GROUNDS.
The Rules of CriminalProcedure do not giwe you justice;they are there to ensure the proper functioning of the courts. CRIMINALPROCEDURE IS NOT ABOUT JUSTICE...it is about formal requirements how a trial ought ooresume and how the pricedings uoght to be conducted. Now...if the Prosecution in Gitmo does NOT PRODUCE allnecessary records to the presiding judge, how is he going to make an unpartial decision and SPEAK JUSTICE! Then ajudge must analyse and weight all ewidence inorder to make an decision. |

Does it matter? These procedings do not fall into any normal criminal procedings, whether Military or Civil. The defendent isn't even priveledged to see the evidence that is being used against him. That's up to the Judge - It's NOT up to the Judge in a normal trial. It's just a fancy Kangaroo Court. Dave |

The Supreme Court struck down the original rules, the news ones are not much better.

The point is, that the trials have been adjudged by our own supreme court as being questionable. I fail to understand why the present administration continues with the farce, realizing that any verdict will not be recognized anywhere in the world today and the SCOTUS will in all probability null and void the verdicts. These people should have been tried by international tribunal and that time has long since come and gone, due to the actions or non action of the current administration. These men, need to be afforded the status of prisoners of war and the International Red Cross needs to be allowed access to them. If they are prisoners of war, then they can be held until the end of the war and can be then tried for crimes after the conflict is settled at an international tribunal... This of course will force the congress to take action and do their duty, is this in fact an actual declared war, or something else... Respectfully, SUNLINER81 This message has been edited.

I would also prefer the case goes to a regular Criminal Court as in my opinion terrorists are NOT prisoners of war. Anyway it is a BIG step in giwing the defendant a chance to bring his complain to attention. Military tribunals were established in Nazi-Germany but in this time Hitler's terror was a conducted by the and NOT by ciwilian terror organisations. Therefore inmy opinion the terrorist's acts are delicts,which ought to be sentences acc.to Title 18 USPC. Anyway if the judge has all records,he might allow the attorneys for Kadr to see his increminating ewidence. |

[/QUOTE] I think we should defacto treat them as POW's. Just because you are a POW doesn't mean you cannot be charged with a war crime. In other words, we treated all captured Germans and Japanese as POW's, and from that group, selected, and tried those who had commited war crimes. This would bring us into conformity with International Law (largely written by us) and still allow us to bring actual criminals to justice. Dave |

If we are going to claim the high moral ground when they are chopping off the heads of our soldiers, then we need to walk the walk, as well as talk the talk... We need to afford those that we hold the full rights of POWs and allow the international Red Cross in for inspections, health, living and personnel. Not only is it required by international law, it's just the right thing to do... Respectfully, SUNLINER81 |

Certainly the Taliban meet all the requirements of Statehood, and the Geneva conventions recognise the rights of non-state combatants. Defacto treating them as normal POW's dies not preclude trying them as criminals. The law does not protect the guilty, so why not use the law, instead of making up shi'ite as you go along? We're the one who wrote most of these rules. They aren't being "imposed" on us by some alien power. Ahhh, I'm tired of us shooting ourselves in the foot, just so that some Neocon can ask me why I want to protect the terrorists. Thousands of Americans were illegally killed by the Japanese and by the Germans. We didn't abandon our morality to fight them. And we didn't need to label them "illegal combatants" to try those who were guilty of crimes. Dave |

I'm with Dave on this.. they're all POWs and therefore can be held without trial until AQ, or the Taliban, or AQI or Hezbollah or whoever surrenders.. I sure hope they built those cells to last!
