Decks Are Stacked in War Crimes Cases, Lawyers Say
William Glaberson, of The New York Times, reports, "The administration's problem-plagued military commission system started up here [in Guantanamo Bay] again Thursday, but it began with contentious new claims that the war crimes cases are unfairly stacked against detainees. Military defense lawyers said that on the eve of the hearing, military prosecutors told them for the first time of a government witness who might be able to help a detainee, Omar Ahmed Khadr, counter the war crimes charges on which he was arraigned Thursday."
