It certainly seems that way, Mr Mclean, and those who have been called
'decent citizens' have said they consider it to be a blight and a stain
upon a good nation's escutcheon.
It has been suggested that if one expects perfection in matters in which
humans are involved one might be disappointed... but it seems that this
suggestion has not made it to some corners of the globe.

Such a jesuit you are old chicken!
You seem to forget that it is a *continuing* state of affairs.
I would suggest you refrain from infering to your constitution cause
you'll be joining Mr Padilla in the twilight zone.

To quote from Chimp I:

He will probably become *Sir* Dubya for this.
Bwahaha!

Apparently none of international law, the Constitution, U.S. law,
military code of justice, nor war laws apply if the big guy says they
don't and can back up his claim by force.
Which can be said about any rights, unless the little guys together
are willing and able to make the big guy change his mind.
