Motions Hearing in the Al-Nashiri Case: February 4 Session
We're back---live (sort of) from Guantanamo (sort of). It's Monday at Fort Meade, and that means it's time to open a multi-day motions hearing in the Nashiri military commission. You remember Abd al Rahim Hussayn Muhammad al-Nashiri, right? He's the alleged Cole bombing mastermind on trial in the other major military commission case going on these days at Guantanamo. Wells and I (mostly Wells) will be covering the hearing all week---motion by motion---on our Events Coverage page.
