Bushites see writing on the wall; WAR CRIMES
But does what is done now, make any difference after what has been done since 09/12/01?
This will not do! It is what has already been done which has defiled the human rights of all people, no matter what they have done.
At least, this shows a consciousnes of guilt, or something like that.
Still, what is done is done. It cannot be taken back, nor can the results be ameliorated now, by this admninistration.
This is what happens when the executive attempts to interpret the constitution and congressional actions. That is not the role of the executive, in our three co-equal branches of government.

That decision struck down the tribunals because they did not obey international law and had not been authorized by Congress.
