Kangaroo Court 

Kangaroo Court

What Kangaroo Court? Camp X-Ray, as it is called, in Cuba. A USA navy base. The USA is holding people there against their will, and by no known convention of law, either American or international. The prisoners have not been charged with any crimes. Some are about to face trial, at which they may be sentenced to death, and still without even being charged. This is American justice. This is the "capital of democracy" they keep telling us they are.

One of the Australians being held there was abducted by American soldiers at a checkpoint on a road in Pakistan, a country which was not at war with the USA, and was in fact assisting the USA during its military campaign in Afghanistan. They grabbed him at a checkpoint in Pakistan, dragged him off to Cuba, and he's been locked up for more than a year without even being charged with any crimes, under ANY system of law.

And what does our glorious Australian government do about it? Nothing. Not a harsh word anywhere. As long as the money keeps rolling in from America, John Howard and the rest of the Australian politicians simply shut up and play nice.
