Message from Sender: Harvard's Gitmo Kangaroo Law School Boumediene v Bush, 553 U.S. Supreme Court, June 12, 2008 Versus Harvard's Kangaroo Law School -- The School for Torturers <http://www.afterdowningstreet.org/forward/emailref/34080> by davidswanson By Francis A. Boyle Not surprisingly, the January 2007 issue of the American Journal of Imperial Law--otherwise known as the self-styled American Journal of International Law but originally founded and still operated by U.S. State and War Departments' apparatchiks and their professorial fellow-travelers--just published an article by Harvard Law School's recently retired Bemis Professor of International Law Detlev Vagts (who only taught me the required course on Legal Accounting) arguing in favor of the Pentagon's Kangaroo Courts System on Guantanamo despite the fact that they have been soundly condemned by every human rights organization and every human rights official and leader in the entire world as well as by the United States Supreme Court itself in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld (2006). I am not going to bother to recite here all the grievous deficiencies of the Gitmo Kangaroo Courts under International Law and U.S. Constitutional Law.
