In light of the comments made by CIA sources in 2005, I can only wonder how it's feasible for Michael Hayden to assert that waterboarding was restricted to three "high-value" detainees.

The US military has spent $12 million on a mobile court complex, which is intended to be used for the trial by Military Commission of up to 80 detainees, beginning in May.

It is surely no coincidence, that the charges against the Guantánamo detainees came just six days after the director of the CIA, admitted that three of the "high-value" detainees had been subjected to waterboarding.

Abdul Hamid al-Ghizzawi's case is central to complaints made in sworn statements last year by military officers, who worked on the tribunals at Guantánamo, that the entire system was rigged.

The Bush administration's decision to choose a child soldier -- the Canadian Omar Khadr -- as its first attempt at a real conviction continues to attract heated opposition.
