(詳細はU.S. President George W. Bush issued a Military Order entitled Detention, Treatment, and Trial of Certain Non-Citizens in the War Against Terrorism.〔(Presidential Military Order: Detention, Treatment, and Trial of Certain Non-Citizens in the War Against Terrorism ), ''The White House'', November 13, 2001〕 The order: #Defines which individuals the President considers subject to the order. #States that the Secretary of Defense will be ultimately responsible for the individuals. #Outlines the conditions under which the Secretary of Defense should detain the individuals. #Specifies that those individuals who were to be tried would be tried before military commissions, and sets out some broad guidelines for how those military commissions should be conducted. #Orders other agencies to assist the Secretary of Defense. #Grants the Secretary of Defense additional powers. #Sets out that the Secretary of Defense has almost unlimited authority over the individuals. #States that the order will be published in the Federal Register. ==Controversy== Critics describe military commissions as, literally, unprecedented—that the officials implementing the commissions would be making up the rules as they went along. However, there is some precedence in US history of Ad Hoc military tribunals. Critics pointed out that the military commissions lacked established rules of evidence. Critics asked why the individuals couldn't be tried before courts martial or before the United States Federal courts. The justification offered by the executive branch was that the military commissions would save time.〔 〕 When legal challenges had postponed the commissions for several years critics claimed that if the Bush administration had allowed the suspects to be tried before established courts of law the trials would have been finished years ago. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Detention, Treatment, and Trial of Certain Non-Citizens in the War Against Terrorism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
