| A federal judge overseeing Guantanamo Bay lawsuits ordered the Justice Department to put other cases aside and make it clear throughout the Bush administration that, after nearly seven years of detention, the detainees must have their day in court. 'The time has come to move these forward,' Judge Thomas F. Hogan said Tuesday during the first hearing over whether the detainees are being held lawfully. 'Set aside every other case that's pending in the division and address this case first.' |

| #3 OK. I'll play the role of the military judge. "Major, bring in the next prisoner." "Sergeant, do you have evidence that this man is an illegal combatant?" Sgt: "Yes, sir. Here it is" "I see. Guilty. Execute him" Sgt: bang Repeat. All in accordance with the Geneva Conventions. |

| #2 We can only hope for a fair trial and a quick hangin'. I have it on pretty good authority that anyone being held at Camp Delta should be summarily executed because they are particularly hateful. The thing the Jihadis hate the most in this world is what is trying the hardest to get them cut loose. FU Judge Hogan. |
