First glance at Gitmo detainees

Great job, Mr. Foster...outstanding reporting and analysis.

I applaud Navy CDR Lachelier's commitment to basic human rights in the defense of her client. However offensive the charges it's important to remember that a man has the right to confront/address the evidence against him in a court of law. That the prosecution considers our actions in this case as going to "unprecedented levels" to provide KSM and others due process makes me wonder about the legitimacy of tribunal system prior to this trial.

I concur with the article, Bush is trying to try these Men, before he leaves his office, much like he's trying to push a security agreement through in Iraq that would cement a permanent base in Iraq (will the dumbness ever stop?).

These men are innocent until proven guilty, let's try something new BUSH and that is take the Moral Highground and prove to the world, we still stand for freedom and justice, not just lies and invasion and occupation by force and grant these men habeus corpus, give us back a country I can be proud to raise my daughter in- Im proud of the people-just not the present Whitehouse.

Lets grab the chance to take the moral highground (which we have't done in ages)and give these men a fari and trail, too show the entire world, that we still are just and noble nation, we have done a terrible job of selling Iraq to the rest of the world.
