Assunto: Re: Even Though BBW won't respond, the idea that Bush lied is a radical left propaganda ploy
Pedro Martínez:As I understand it, Obama is closing Gitmo in one year, and in the meantime will be working on new policies to establish a new system for prosecuting suspected terrorists. I don't know what that means fully as it's being worked out and likely will take a bit of time.
From Townhall.com:
"Administration officials said that, pending an internal review, federal and military courts may be used. But, the officials added, a version of the secretive military tribunals, as established under President George W. Bush with the help of McCain, remains an option, too."
With national security issues, some "detainees" are likely to fall under a more closed hearing (military tribunal) rather than the open to the public civil courts.
Either way, Obama seems committed to making changes that to a greater extent address the human rights issues you're discussing.
