GTMO unlawful command influence ruling in Hamdan
On Friday one of the military “judges” issues a 13-page ruling booting the “legal advisor” to the Convening Authority. (It pretty much vindicates the convening authority, herself, ex-CAAF judge, Susan Crawford.) I am not going to say that this indicates military commissions, but most of what is in the ruling is the kind of things that many people have speculated or had direct knowledge of, but this is the first time it appears in writing. In fact, it is a rare “judicial” finding of fact regarding political actions
It also contains the accounts of various Senators (i.e. McCain, Graham), judicial nominees (Haynes), and people everyone likes to talk about. Also, General Hartmann wanted “sexy” cases.
