THIS IS C-SPAN'S "AMERICA AND THE COURTS." NEXT A DISCUSSION ON THE LEGAL AND POLICY ISSUES RAISED... |
| 00:00:59 |
|
OK. LET ME START WITH THE QUESTION DIRECTED TO THIS PERSON. THIS HAS TO DO WITH THE OBSTACLES TO... |
| 00:02:31 |
|
BANKS, IT IS NICE TO BE HERE. THAT ME START WITH -- THANKS, IT IS NICE TO BE HERE. LET ME START WITH... |
| 00:10:41 |
|
I WILL ASK YOU TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT. THERE IS A MENTION TO PLACEMENT IN THIRD COUNTRIES. THERE COULD... |
| 00:10:59 |
|
YES. THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME COME. THERE IS LITIGATION PENDING ON THIS QUESTION. JOHN MENTIONED... |
| 00:13:09 |
|
THAT ME JUMP IN. ONE MIGHT RESPOND TO THAT AND SAY THAT IS TRUE WHEN TALKING ABOUT ADMISSION OR SOMEONE... |
| 00:13:29 |
|
I THINK IT DOES. THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO DISAGREE WITH ME. BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT HAS CONCEDED -- THE... |
| 00:14:12 |
|
HOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THIS GROUP THE CHINESE MUSLIMS? MOST PEOPLE. THIS IS THE MOST INTRACTABLE... |
| 00:14:56 |
|
IT WAS NOT TRAINING TO WAGE WAR AGAINST US. |
| 00:14:59 |
|
THAT IS WHERE I AM HEADING. THEY WERE THERE BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO WAGE WAR AGAINST THE CHINESE. ... |
| 00:16:18 |
|
I LIKE TO ADD TO THIS. YOU CAN TALK YOURSELF INTO NOT TALKING ABOUT THEM. THEY ARE EMBLEMATIC OF ANYTHING... |
| 00:18:36 |
|
IT JOHN IS RIGHT ABOUT THE REPATRIATION OF DIFFICULTY IN -- ONE MUST CONCEDE THAT THEY ARE EIGHT ACTUALLY... |
| 00:19:17 |
|
I SUPPOSE THAT IS RIGHT. THAT COULD BE THE LEADING EDGE OF A TREND. MY GUESS IS THAT THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION... |
| 00:19:47 |
|
I DO THINK THAT IS PROBABLY WHAT WILL HAPPEN, BECAUSE FOR US AS NEGOTIATORS AT THE STATE DEPARTMENT'S,... |
| 00:21:04 |
|
TO TAKE THAT ONE STEP FORWARD, IT HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR MANY INCENTIVES. IF YOU IMAGINE THE SITUATION... |
| 00:21:38 |
|
UNLESS YOU DO NOT LIKE CLEVELAND. |
| 00:21:40 |
|
PARTICULARLY. [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:21:44 |
|
I WILL ANSWER. I THINK THE ANSWER IS YES. I THINK BY -- GIVEN WHERE AN INDIVIDUAL HAS THE RIGHT TO... |
| 00:22:12 |
|
I WILL LEAD US OUT OF THIS REPATRIATION ISSUE, ONLY TO FIND THAT I HAVE LED US INTO ANOTHER ISSUE.... |
| 00:22:53 |
|
I THINK THERE ARE FOUR DISTINCT REASONS WHY, FOR ANY GIVEN DETAINEE WHO MAY BE COMPLETELY TERRIFIED... |
| 00:28:15 |
|
THAT MAY ASK YOU. -- LET ME ASK YOU. THE MOST COMMONLY ASKED QUESTION THAT I GOT, AND NOW IT IS RECYCLING... |
| 00:30:17 |
|
WHO WAS IN SAUDIA ARABIA? WHAT ABOUT THE PERSON THAT SAYS THEY ARE BEING TORTURED BY THE SAUDIA ARABIAN... |
| 00:30:32 |
|
I THINK I WAS A QUESTION THAT OCCURRED AFTER THE CRIMINAL STATUTES WERE CHANGED. ONE OF THE THINGS... |
| 00:31:25 |
|
IN SOME CASES THE PRACTICAL DIFFICULTIES ARE OVERSTATED. THE TRIAL JUDGE SAID IT IS A COMPLICATED... |
| 00:31:46 |
|
WITNESSES WERE HERE. EVIDENCE WAS HERE. |
| 00:31:51 |
|
I THINK WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL TO DISTINGUISH AMONG THE DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF PEOPLE WE ARE TALKING... |
| 00:33:00 |
|
I WAS SPEAKING IN THE CONTEXT OF CLOSING GUANTANAMO. IF YOU TAKE THE UNIVERSE -- SEAS. THAT THE UNIVERSE... |
| 00:34:18 |
|
ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAVE ESTABLISHED HERE, IF ANYTHING, IS THAT THERE ARE COMPLICATIONS FOR REPATRIATION... |
| 00:35:34 |
|
AND I AM VERY ANTI-NATIONAL SECURITY COURT. I AM VERY -- LET ME EXPLAIN THOSE POINTS. NATIONAL SECURITY... |
| 00:36:50 |
|
THAT ME JUMP IN ON THAT BEFORE WE CONTINUE WITH THAT. A LOT OF THESE DEBATES ABOUT WHO CAN BE DETAINED,... |
| 00:37:30 |
|
AND THEY JUMP OVER THAT QUESTION. THEY JUMP OVER BOTH QUESTIONS. THEY SAY WHATEVER THE ANSWER IS, ... |
| 00:38:16 |
|
AS LONG AS THEY DO NOT CALL IT A NATIONAL SECURITY COURT. |
| 00:38:19 |
|
I DO NOT THINK YOU NEED A NEW COURT. I DO NOT KNOW WHY WE CANNOT USE THE COURT WE HAVE. IT IS ONLY... |
| 00:38:47 |
|
THIS IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE A DIFFICULT ISSUE FOR THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION. WHAT IS THE LEGAL... |
| 00:43:47 |
|
I FIND MYSELF IN AN AWKWARD POSITION HERE. STEVE STARTED AND WE HAVE DONE THESE PANELS BEFORE. WE... |
| 00:44:31 |
|
I BROUGHT IT FROM OUR LAST PANEL. [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:44:36 |
|
THE OTHER THING HE SAID IS THAT IT SUPPORTS A FRAMEWORK STATURE TO REGULATE THE TENSIONS. THE COMMON... |
| 00:48:40 |
|
ARE WE TALKING ABOUT ROD BLAGOJEVICH? [LAUGHTER] |
| 00:48:47 |
|
THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT AS DANGEROUS AS THEY WERE BEFORE. WE DO NOT NEED TO CONTINUE TO DETAIN... |
| 00:49:46 |
|
I DO NOT DISAGREE WITH THAT, SHOCKINGLY. THERE IS ONE IMPORTANT POINT THAT HE IS OMITING. HE IS NOT... |
| 00:51:09 |
|
BEFORE WE TURN TO QUESTIONS. THERE WILL BE MANY -- WE WERE TALKING ABOUT DOMESTIC LAW TO HOLD PEOPLE.... |
| 00:55:21 |
|
WHICH WILL SWITCH TO QUESTIONS ON THAT. FOLLOWING UP ON THE FOURTH GENEVA CONVENTION, I AM GLAD YOU... |
