Glenn Greenwald at Salon - The Obama administration, after arguing that the Guantanamo Bay prisoners could not be given civilian trials, and may have to suffer "prolonged detention", is now berating Pakistan's military, for "holding thousands of suspected militants in indefinite detention, arguing that the nation's dysfunctional civilian justice system cannot be trusted to prevent them from walking free."

Can you say, "hypocrisy"? Thought you could. [root]
