US Asks to Rewrite Gitmo Detainee Evidence PlusUS Asks to Rewrite Gitmo Detainee EvidenceUS Asks to Rewrite Gitmo Detainee EvidenceThe Associated PressThe Bush administration wants to rewrite the official evidence against Guantanamo Bay detainees, allowing it to shore up its cases before they come under scrutiny by civilian judges for the first time. (June 20)[Notes:ANCHOR VOICE] [Notes:guantanamo file]For years, the U-S government has stood behind the evidence it used to hold detainees at Guantanamo Bay. But now that those prisoners have the right to challenge their detention, the Bush administration wants to rewrite the evidence.Government lawyers say they want more time to add new details and make other changes to their cases before those hearings begin.SOTMatt Apuzzo/The Associated Press"there's an argument to be made that really you're just moving from one court to another and so you need to make a few changes. But certainly the attorneys for the detainees think this is absolutely indicative that they don't believe their own evidence."Earlier this month, the Supreme Court cleared the way for detainees to challenge their detention in civilian court. Attorneys for the detainees say the government's request is proof that the evidence is flimsy.SOTDavid Remes/Detainee Attorney 32:06 at this stage of the game, it's sort of an admission that the original returns were defective, and also an admission that the government thinks it needs to beef up evidence it originally presented in order to justify holding these men [Notes:video of documents]The government's case is laid out in documents called factual returns.Federal judges will decide whether the Justice Department can rewrite the documents. The Justice Department had no comment.The Supreme Court's ruling was a blow to the Bush administration, which has long been criticized for detaining prisoners at Guantanamo.SOTMatt Apuzzo/The Associated Press"No doubt the government didnot want to go to court on this. They have been fighting this every step of the way" The ruling means federal judges could end up ordering some detainees to be released. However, those orders will depend on security concerns. ___ ___, The Associated Press. Tags: guantanamo evidence us asks rewrite gitmo detainee |

Soldier fire 'rubber' bullet at Palestinian detainee 20 July '08: B'Tselem: Prosecute soldier who fired 'rubber' bullet at Palestinian detainee, Investigate the involvement of an officer in the event and suspected cover-up Today, B'Tselem is publishing a video clip documenting a soldier firing a rubber coated steel bullet, from extremely close range, at a cuffed and blindfolded Palestinian detainee. The shooting took place in the presence of a lieutenant colonel, who was holing the Palestinian's arm when the shot was fired. The incident took place on 7 July, in Nil'in, a village in the West Bank. A Palestinian demonstrator, Ashraf Abu Rahma, 27, was stopped by soldiers, who cuffed and blindfolded him for about thirty minutes, during which time, according to Abu-Rahma, they beat him. Afterwards, a group of soldiers and border policemen led him to an army jeep. The video clip shows a soldier aim his weapon at the demonstrator's legs, from about 1.5 meters away, and fire a rubber coated steel bullet at him. Abu-Rahma stated that the bullet hit his left toe, received treatment from an army medic, and released by the soldiers. A fourteen-year-old Palestinian girl from Nil'in filmed the incident from her house in the village, and B'Tselem received it this morning. B'Tselem does not know if any proceedings were opened against those involved. However, residents of Ni'lin told B'Tselem that they saw the soldier the following day, still serving in his unit. B'Tselem immediately forwarded a copy to the Military Police Investigation Unit commander, with demand that an immediate Military Police investigation be opened, if it hasn't already, and that the soldier be brought to justice. Additionally, B'Tselem demanded that the involvement of the lieutenant colonel who was holding the detainee is investigated. B'Tselem stressed that members of the security forces are obligated to report unlawful acts. It is even more serious is a high-ranking officer participates in such a whitewash.

Confirmation of Detainee Murders On Wednesday, June 18, 2008, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), Chairman of the House Judiciary Subcommittee on the Constitution and Civil Rights, held a hearing dealing with the torture of detainees in U.S. custody. This clip features the testimony of Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff to former Secretary of State Colin Powell. Wilkerson not only confirms that more than 100 detainees have died in U.S. custody, but that at least 25 of these deaths have been classified as homicides by American investigators. Interestingly, Nadler has so far refused to support impeachment hearings for Bush and Cheney. Please contact him and make it clear that if he continues to refuse to demand accountability and justice that he will be forever seen as complicit in the crimes of the Bush administration. Rep.

DETAINEE (I felt the need to share this brilliant artistic creation through video, and want to thank its creators!! The following is an excerpt description regarding this live multi-media art exhibit I taped in NYC. "THIS VIDEO MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN DUE TO GRAPHIC IMAGES") The Roger Smith Hotel Art Gallery, The Lab, Presents "Detainee" Art Explores Politics in a Dehumanizing Environment Created with Paint and Digital Projections. Detainee links the image of the United States of America with its recent decision to implement the Military Commissions Act of 2006, focusing within this performance work on the absolute power that the State has determined is within its moral and political prerogative to hold over any individual. David Duckworth, as a bound blindfolded detainee, becomes the paintbrush with which interrogators paint the American Flag on the floor of the gallery. Digital projections by Beverly Richey, painted walls by Max Yawney, and sound compositions by Patrick Todd, augment this central action by creating an environment in which detached governmental roles in a dehumanizing process is explored. The Roger Smith Hotel is committed to relaying all types of performance and fine art to the public through its gallery and all of its wall space. With the combination of The Lab's prime location in midtown (Manhattan) and the intensity of Detainee, it is sure to attract the attention of the public. It is both courageous and bold to become involved with such an influential piece of art during such an uncertain time.
