US: Relatives of September 11 victims condemn Guantánamo show trial
12 December 2008
In a letter released December 10, 33 relatives of people killed in the September 11, 2001 attacks have condemned the Guantánamo military tribunals as illegitimate and politically motivated.
Issued in response to positive remarks made by a half-dozen family members selected by the Pentagon to attend hearings this week, the statement reflects strong opposition within the US population to the policies carried out by the military at Guantánamo Bay and elsewhere over the past five years.
The letter, published on the American Civil Liberties Union web site, stressed the fact “that many of us do not believe these military commissions to be fair, in accordance with American values, or capable of achieving the justice that 9/11 family members and all Americans deserve.
“We believe that the secretive and unconstitutional nature of these proceedings deprive us of the right to know the full truth about what happened on 9/11,” the letter stated.

Will Obama Really Close Guantanamo?
He has said he will close the detention camp. But its critics worry he may not carry through. He has said the military commission system has failed. But its critics worry that he may continue it, particularly with the Sept. 11 case now at a pivotal stage.
U.S. Expanding DNA Collection
Immigration and civil liberties groups condemned a new U.S. government policy to collect DNA samples from all noncitizens detained by authorities and all people arrested for federal crimes.

Immigrants Suffer Brutal U.S. Raid
No guns or drugs were found. All the men were Guatemalan immigrants, and the advocates said at least six of them arrived at a nearby detention center with bruises and cuts.

In 2006 we find Bush pleading for renewal of the Patriot Act, saying
that our Constitution would not be violated as “There’s oversight on
this important program”. Once passed, Bush leaps into action,
significantly undermining the oversight he promised in order to get the
bill passed. Also, highlights of Bush’s hard, oh so hard, night with
John Kerry in September 2004.
