No torture

Dear Urbano,



Today, December 5, the Supreme Court hears two historic cases that could determine the future of habeas corpus for people detained in Guantanamo by the United States.  You can read more at the Center for Constitutional Rights.






According to CCR,  (Center for Constitutional rights), "This new case goes Beyond Guantanamo - we are directly challenging President Bush's unprecedented power grab, his use of torture in violation of domestic and international law, and his assertion that he can hold anyone indefinitely anywhere in the world on his word alone. The case also challenges the 2006 Republican Congress's attempt to clear his way with its passage of the Military Commissions Act."
