Recently, US officials release several prisoners from Guantanamo Bay in Cuba who were being held as "enemy combatants" in the war on terror. Three of the men, British citizens, gave detailed interviews about their capture and confinement to the Observer newspaper. Parts one and two of those interviews are now online. The story these men tell is not pretty. Even if one assumes that their claims may be exaggerated in some ways, their plight should at least convince the American people of the need for some sort of legal process to sort out the real terrorists from the falsely accused.
I wonder if the Supreme Court took notice of this?
