Book excerpt: Enacted as part of President Bush's war on terror, the Military Commissions Act has been controversial from the start. It was passed after the Supreme Court's ruling in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld invalidated Bush's system of military commissions for trying the Guantanamo Bay detainees because such commissions required congressional authorization. In the same decision it also held that the standards of the Geneva Convention must be applied to terrorism suspects.The Act amended the War Crimes Act of 1996, the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005, and the Uniform Code of Military Justice, codifying and establishing procedures for commissions to try alien unlawful enemy combatants engaging in hostilities against the United States for war crimes and other specified offenses, including murder, attacking civilians, hostage taking, torture, terrorism, and providing material support for terrorism. This important 5-volume set includes all the documents comprising the legislative history of The Military Commissions Act. These include the various bill versions, the congressional debate over its habeas corpus provisions and hearings held by the Senate Judiciary Committee and the House and Senate Armed Services Committee, and President Bush's messages to Congress relating to the military commissions, all of which reflect the heated debate over national security and constitutional rights.

Download or read book The Manual for Military Commissions written by United States. Department of Defense and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, the Secretary of Defense is submitting to Congress a comprehensive Manual for the full and fair prosecution of alien unlawful enemy combatants by military commissions, in accordance with the Military Commissions Act of 2006. The Manual is made up of four separate sections: The Preamble, The Rules for Military Commissions, the Military Commission Rules of Evidence, and the Crimes and Elements. The Rules for Military Commissions set forth the procedural rules for Military Commissions. The Military Commission Rules of Evidence provide evidentiary rules to govern the admissibility of evidence at trial. The Crimes and Elements section lays out the crimes punishable by Military Commission and the elements of those crimes. This Manual is the product of a tremendous interagency effort. Principally military judge advocates and attorneys from the Departments of Defense and Justice, using the Manual for Courts-Martial as a guide, undertook the initial drafting. Drafts were then coordinated with other relevant agencies to ensure that specific rules and procedures reflect careful consideration of our nation's intelligence activities, as called for in the MCA. The overriding considerations reflected in the Manual for Military Commissions are fairness and fidelity to the Military Commissions Act of 2006. It is intended to ensure that alien unlawful enemy combatants who are suspected of war crimes and certain other offenses are prosecuted before regularly constituted courts affording all the judicial guarantees which are recognized as indispensable by civilized people. This Manual will have an historic impact for our military and our country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On November 13, 2001, President Bush issued a Military Order (M.O.) pertaining to the detention, treatment, and trial of certain non-citizens in the war against terrorism. Military commissions pursuant to the M.O. began in November 2004 against four persons declared eligible for trial, but the Supreme Court in Hamdan v. Rumsfeld invalidated the military commissions as improper under the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ). To permit military commissions to go forward, Congress approved the Military Commissions Act of 2006 (MCA), conferring authority to promulgate rules that depart from the strictures of the UCMJ and possibly U.S. international obligations. Military commissions proceedings were reinstated and resulted in three convictions under the Bush Administration.

Download or read book The Military Commissions Act and Detainee Trials written by Joshua Segel and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The use of military commissions to try suspected terrorists has been the focus of intense debate since President Bush issued his original Military Order authorising such trials in November, 2001. The Military Order specified that persons subject to it would have no recourse in the U.S. court system to appeal a verdict or obtain any other sort of relief, but the Supreme Court essentially invalidated that provision in its 2004 opinion, Rasul v. Bush. In response, Congress enacted the Detainee Treatment Act of 2005 (DTA). This book provides a background and analysis comparing military commissions as envisioned under the revised Military Commissions Act (MCA) to those established by the MCA 2006. After reviewing the history of the implementation of military commissions in the "global war on terrorism", this book provides an overview of the procedural safeguards provided in the MCA.
