I decided to put this post in the “International law” category, but also in the “World politics”, because of my sincere opinion that this is far from being simply matter for international lawyers to discuss, but that this is for a long time a political issue par excellence. Yesterday, an US federal Court of Appeals decided that the court lacks jurisdiction to hear any habeas corpus appeal by any of the Guantanamo detainees.
When I read a decision in it’s integral version, I will give my “precious legalistic opinion” on this, but for the time being, I want to share that in my opinion, this is just another outrageous decision that goes against fundamental civilized values American society is built on.
