Supreme Court Rejects Detention Policy

By a 6-3 vote, the justices ruled American courts can consider the claims of Guantanamo Bay prisoners--suspected al Qaeda members or Taliban fighters--who said in their lawsuits they were being held illegally in violation of their rights.

Hey, I just found out you can view BBC World news segments online now. :) Here's one on the story you mentioned:

I'm gonna have to go through those. He's sort of the BBC version of Bill Moyers. :) Probably slightly less liberal, but still very objective and a good listener. I liked watching his show when I was in NZ anyway.
