Mrs McGraw

ah mrs mcgraw -- the seargent said --
would you like to make a soldier of your son, ted?
with a scarlet coat and a big cocked hat
ah mrs mcgraw wouldn't you like that? ...

mrs mcgraw lived by the seashore
for the space seven long years or more
she spied a ship come into the bay ...

up came ted without any legs
and in their place two wooden pegs ...

Don't let me be misunderstood

Get Up Stand Up

All used up

The Conference Report on the Bill was over 1000 pages long, reflecting the length of the bill and

the many disputes involved in crafting it through its six versions. The current 1021 language reflects the 1031 language of the Senate version, which was the subject of a substantial political struggle in the Senate. Feinstein, for example, proposed an amendment to the 1031 language that would have provided a blanket prohibition but lost this fight, in part because the Republicans wanted to insist on indefinite detention language. A similar conflict appeared between the House and Senate versions

The 1031 language in the version of HR 1540 referred to the Senate Committee on Armed Services does nothing except to define "individual detained at Guantanamo" as a person under DoD control at Guantanamo who is neither a US citizen nor a member of the US military; the version that passed the Senate contains in 1031(e) the language that later appeared in 1021(e) of the bill from the Conference Committee

... Senator Feinstein and others feared that Section 1021 would greatly expand the power of the government with particular reference to the authority to detain American citizens captured domestically. Senator Feinstein explained that she did not believe the government had such authority while Senators Graham and Levin, perhaps among others, believed that the government already did. Thus, Section 1021(e) was introduced specifically to effect a “truce” that ensured that—as to those covered by Section 1021(e)—courts would decide detention authority based not on Section 1021(b), but on what the law previously had provided in the absence of that enactment. This is not to say that Section 1021(e) specifically “exempts” these individuals from the President’s AUMF detention authority, in the sense that Section 1022 expressly exempts United States citizens from its requirements. Rather, Section 1021(e) provides that Section 1021 just does not speak—one way or the other—to the government’s authority to detain citizens, lawful resident aliens, or any other persons captured or arrested in the United States ...

The reconciliation between the House and Senate versions of the detention provisions is discussed in the Conference Report:
... The Senate amendment contained a provision (sec. 1031) that would affirm the authority of the Armed Forces of the United States to detain certain covered persons pursuant to the Authorization for Use of Military Force (Public Law 107–40). The provision would not affect existing law or authorities relating to the detention of United States citizens, lawful resident aliens of the United States, or any other persons who are captured or arrested in the United States.

Here is Levin's statement on the bill, as signed:

The Detainee Provisions in the National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2012
Tuesday, January 10, 2012
... Unfortunately, much of what has been said and written about the detainee provisions is simply wrong. If this bill did what some people claim it does, I would have opposed it myself ... First, it affirms the Obama administration’s military detention policy for individuals captured in our fight against al Qaeda, a position upheld by the federal courts. This provision will prevent future administrations from adopting more expansive and problematic interpretations of military detention authority. Second, it establishes a presumption of military detention in the case of one narrow category of individuals – foreign al Qaeda terrorists who are captured in the course of planning or conducting attacks against the United States. The executive branch can waive that presumption, and its ability to try detainees in civilian courts is protected. Third, it establishes new procedural rights, including access to a military judge and a military lawyer, for any individual who is to be held in long-term military detention ... Now, let’s turn to some common inaccurate statements about the legislation:
-- It prohibits civilian trials of terror suspects. False ...
-- It strips the FBI and other federal law enforcement agencies of their anti-terrorism duties and hands those authorities to the military. False ...
-- It allows military troops to make arrests on U.S. soil. False ...
-- It gives presidents new authority to indefinitely hold U.S. citizens without charge or trial. False. The legislation does not change current law regarding U.S. citizens ...
-- It allows indefinite detention of U.S. citizens without access to civilian courts. False ...

La complainte du partisan

Anna Marly

... Personne ne m´a demandé
D´où je viens et où je vais
Vous qui le savez
Effacez mon passage

J´ai changé cent fois de nom
J´ai perdu femme et enfants
Mais j´ai tant d´amis
Et j´ai la France entière ...

Hier encore, nous étions trois
Il ne reste plus que moi
Et je tourne en rond
Dans la prison des frontières

Le vent souffle sur les tombes
La liberté reviendra
On nous oubliera
Nous rentrerons dans l´ombre
