On Friday, District Court Judge Gladys Kessler ordered the release from Guantánamo of Farhi Saeed bin Mohammed, a 48-year-old Algerian, after granting his habeas corpus petition. Her ruling has not yet been declassified, so the reasons for her decision are not yet clear, but it is significant that the ruling now brings to 31 the number of prisoners who have successfully challenged the basis of their detention in U.S. courts. In contrast, just eight prisoners have lost their habeas petitions, meaning that the success rate in the prisoners’ legal challenges now stands at 80 percent. Read the rest of this entry »

Senator Lindsey Graham, Giving Comfort to the 9/11 Commission, is now in open Denial of Scientific Proof of 9/11 Treason

October 13, 2009

source: 9/11 Blogger

Below is some of what a representative in Senator Graham’s DC office told me on October 1st in response to my further inquiry into the Senator’s acknowledgment and response to the information we gave him and he willingly accepted to take a look at. http://www.911blogger.com/node/20578
