Guantanamo Detainee Transfer Policy and Recidivism by Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities,, Subcommittee on Emerging Threats and Capabilities Committee on Armed Services, House of Representatives Pdf

In the first days of this administration, the President issued three executive orders that set forth a robust agenda to develop a more sustainable detention policy that reflects our values. Besides directing Guantanamo's closure, a policy to which the administration remains committed, the President ordered a comprehensive review of detainees remaining at the detention facility to determine the disposition most appropriate to each individual. This review, concluding in January 2010, involved a task force of senior officials from across the government. The recently signed executive order builds on this effort by providing a periodic review for covered detainees that again looks to the interagency for unanimous agreement on any decision to transfer.

Leaving Guantánamo by Anonim Pdf

"This report posits four findings: Finding 1. Mechanisms to reduce the GTMO population were first contemplated when the facility was established in 2002. However, procedures to accomplish this took about eight months to finalize, and were spurred by persistent concerns that some detainees should not be held. Finding 2. After the first review process began, political and diplomatic pressures to reduce the GTMO population arose, resulting in releases and transfers. Finding 3. Pressure to reduce the GTMO population accelerated in the second Bush term, before reengagement dangers became fully apparent. Finding 4. While the GTMO transfer and release process instituted by the Obama administration differed in some important respects from what preceded it, there are sufficient Continuities so that the threat of reengagement may not be lessened in the long term. In addition to chapters discussing each finding in depth, this report includes several companion articles illustrating specific issues. A classified section sets forth material which cannot be reproduced here"--P. 03.

Guantanamo Detainees by Elliot T. Murphy Pdf

The Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee undertook an in-depth, comprehensive bipartisan investigation of procedures to dispatch detainees from the Guantanamo Bay detention facility (GTMO) over the past decade. This included an examination of mechanisms intended to prevent former detainees from re-engaging in terror-related activities. This book explores how the Bush and Obama administrations, in reaction to domestic political pressures and a desire to earn goodwill abroad, attempted to advance strategic national security goals, and "release" or "transfer" GTMO detainees elsewhere.

Power Wars by Charlie Savage Pdf

Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Charlie Savage's penetrating investigation of the Obama presidency and the national security state. Barack Obama campaigned on changing George W. Bush's "global war on terror" but ended up entrenching extraordinary executive powers, from warrantless surveillance and indefinite detention to military commissions and targeted killings. Then Obama found himself bequeathing those authorities to Donald Trump. How did the United States get here? In Power Wars, Charlie Savage reveals high-level national security legal and policy deliberations in a way no one has done before. He tells inside stories of how Obama came to order the drone killing of an American citizen, preside over an unprecendented crackdown on leaks, and keep a then-secret program that logged every American's phone calls. Encompassing the first comprehensive history of NSA surveillance over the past forty years as well as new information about the Osama bin Laden raid, Power Wars equips readers to understand the legacy of Bush's and Obama's post-9/11 presidencies in the Trump era.

The Intersection of Law and War by Kristen Boon,Douglas Lovelace Pdf

Terrorism: Commentary on Security Documents is a series that provides primary source documents and expert commentary on various topics in the worldwide effort to combat terrorism. Among the documents collected are transcripts of Congressional testimony, reports by such federal government bodies as the Congressional Research Service (CRS) and the Government Accountability Office (GAO), United Nations Security Council resolutions, reports and investigations by the United Nations Secretary-General and other dedicated UN bodies, and case law from the U.S. and around the globe covering issues related to terrorism. Most volumes carry a single theme, and inside each volume the documents appear within topic-based categories. The series also includes a subject index and other indices that guide the user through this complex area of the law. Volume 126, The Intersection of Law and War, takes a fresh look at the ways in which law and war intersect in this modern age of multifaceted and multidimensional warfare. Professor Douglas Lovelace, Jr. has organized Congressional Research Service reports and United Nations studies to discuss how U.S. law and international law bear on contemporary national security issues such as: terrorism in the context of the war powers debate; the use of drones for targeted killings; maintaining and closing the U.S. detention facility at Guantanamo Bay; and illegal border crossing into the United States.
