America from the Statue of Liberty to
Guantánamo

America from the Statue of Liberty to
Guantánamo 06/05/2005 11:33 PM
It still amazes me that in 4 short years, George Bush has managed to transform the symbols by which America is known overseas from the Statue of Liberty and Hollywood to Guantánamo and the hooded prisoner tortured at Abu Ghraib. Each day brings new evidence confirming the reports of American murders and atrocities committed in the name of the so-called "war on terrorism," which seems to have turned into the "war to create terrorists." For instance, Human Rights Watch reports: at least six detainees in U.S. custody in Afghanistan have been killed since 2002, including one man held by the CIA. More than two years later, no U.S. personnel have been charged with homicide in any of these deaths, although U.S. Department of Defense documents show that five of the six deaths were clear homicides. While the Bush administration denies any responsibility for the atrocities, blaming low level soldiers for having correctly understood Bush's orders condoning torture, Guantánamo has come to symbolize the United States for large parts of the world. As the NYT reports: From Mumbai, India, to Amman, Jordan, to London, Guantánamo is a continuing subject for discussion, from television talk shows to sermons to everyday conversations. In countries like Afghanistan, Britain and Pakistan, released detainees often return home and relate their experiences on television news programs. Accusations of egregious abuse sometimes prompt violence, as in last week's demonstrations in Afghanistan. Guantánamo provides rhetorical fodder for politicians seeking to bring down United States-allied rulers in their own countries, and it offers a ready rallying point against American dominance, even in countries whose own police and military have been known for severe violations of human rights. ... In Europe, accusations of abuse at Guantánamo, as much as the war in Iraq, have become a symbol of what many see as America's dangerous drift away from the ideals that made it a moral beacon in the post-World War II era. There is a persistent and uneasy sense that the United States fundamentally changed after September 11, and not for the better. What can I say to the parents of the 654 young men being held and tortured by American soldiers in Guantánamo and Bahgram, many of whom appear to be guilty only of being Islamic in the wrong place and wrong time? For a man raised with the idealism of the Civil Rights movement, the anti-war movement, and the Peace...

NY Times: Court Hears Case on U.S. Detainees. The Bush administration yielded no ground before the Supreme Court on Wednesday in arguing that the open-ended military detention of United States citizens as enemy combatants, without criminal charges or access to lawyers, was justified both in law and as policy.

The administration's claim here -- that the president and his aides alone can decide to lock an American citizen away forever is a claim to their right, and that of future presidents', to be tyrants. It's incredible that this is even thinkable. But our collective fear from the Sept. 11 attacks, and Congress' absolute spinelessness in defending the Constitution it swore to uphold, has given Bush what he so plainly wants: the opportunity to be the president who asserts, and gets, absolute power. Absolute power is always abused. Always. This kind of absolute power -- making leaders the prosecutor, judge and jury -- is the lynchpin of tyranny. If the court upholds this abuse of liberty, it will be assisting in a crime: If this assault on the Constitution succeeds -- if the Constitution has truly become meaningless on something so fundamental -- then we will have destroyed America to save it. The stakes are that high. NOTE: Slate's coverage of the court arguments yesterday has a smart additional feature. There are inserts linking to the audio of specific exchanges.

NY Times: Supreme Court Affirms Detainees' Right to Use Courts. The Supreme Court ruled today that people being held by the United States as enemy combatants can challenge their detention in American courts — the court's most important statement in decades on the balance between personal liberties and national security.

There's still a scary deference to the executive branch in some of the language in these rulings. But there's also something to cheer: the president can't decide what the law is. The court punted on the Padilla case. He's an American citizen who was grabbed on U.S. soil and slammed indefinitely into a military brig. The court said his lawyer raised the case in the wrong court. Sheesh. But there's overall good news. As one justice wrote, the "War on Terror" does not give the president "a blank check" in defining the rights -- or lack of rights -- the Constitution grants.
