Charges dropped in Guantanamo trial (The National, February 06. 2009)

The Pentagon’s senior judge overseeing terror trials at Guantanamo Bay dropped charges yesterday against an al Qa’eda suspect in the 2000 USS Cole bombing, upholding President Barack Obama’s order to freeze military tribunals there.

The charges against the suspected al Qa’eda bomber Abd al Rahim al Nashiri marked the last active Guantanamo war crimes case.

The legal move by Susan J Crawford, the top legal authority for military trials at Guantanamo, brings all cases into compliance with President Obama’s executive order to halt court proceedings at the US Navy base in Cuba.

...if you aren't even trying these guys, not that most Americans think they should get due process.
