1984 detainee lawyers denied guantanamo file access

wikileaks for the people!!!!
but keep the lawyers as ignorant as possible? right.

when practicing law in the USA indicates quite clearly . . .

when certified ignorance is the demand of your craft association . . .

when torture is dogma, and made law . . .

and disclosing or knowing the truth is illegal . . .

disbartorturelawyers has a point, and so too, should disbarment befall lawyers who deliberately keep their heads in the sand according to the justice department's wishes . . . ?

as though international law, or human rights, were a joke.

note to others:  please do not send me racist emails . . .

WASHINGTON — Anyone surfing the Internet this week is free to read leaked documents about the prisoners held by the American military at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, to print them out or e-mail them to friends.

Except, that is, for the lawyers who represent the prisoners.

On Monday, hours after WikiLeaks, The New York Times and other news organizations began publishing the documents online, the Justice Department informed Guantánamo defense lawyers that the documents remained legally classified even after they were made public.

Because the lawyers have security clearances, they are obligated to treat the readily available files “in accordance with all relevant security precautions and safeguards” — handling them, for example, only in secure government facilities, said the notice from the department’s Court Security Office.
