On CNN news today, Pres Bush spoke with disgust about the "unlawful" detention of the 15 british military personel that allegedly entered Iranian borders without permission, how is that any different from Bush signing of the detention bill last year where "habeus corpus" rights can be abolished under justified circumstances?
I totally DO NOT agree with the "detention" idea that Iran authorities have done, but at least these detentions are not done in total secrecy by Executive Order... where the detainee has absolutely NO RIGHTs of attorney. Iran govt can justifiably state that theya re afraid the "allied forces" might spy on them to invade them as they had invaded Iraq a coupla years ago, thus effectively making the detainees prisoners of war to protect the country from Foreign invasion right?
Those who are well knowledged in Poltical or Diplomatic law, please help me clear my confusion... Thank you in advanced
