There are currently two American citizens in prison awaiting trial for crimes against the United States of America. The first citizen's name is John Walker Lindh. He was born in California and is accused of conspiring to murder Americans, supporting terrorist organizations and committing crimes of violence while fighting for the Taliban. He is being tried in a civilian court in Virginia.
The second citizen's name is Yasser Hamdi. He was born in Louisiana and is being held in an American military prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. He is accused of conspiring to murder Americans while fighting for the Taliban. Under rules of law that the Bush Administration is making up as it goes along, he could be detained indefinitely and may never be brought to trial. If he does ever get a chance at justice, it won't be in a civilian court in the United States like Lindh. Hamdi will be judged by a military tribunal.
These two men are not being accorded the same chance at justice, yet they were both born in the United States and are charged with very similar crimes. There cannot be justice here because due process has been suspended.
