exactly, international law dictates that all suspects are innocent until proven guilty . (by the way, that is in the UN charter)

people here are being held indefinately w/o lawyer, w/o trial under the assumption that they are guilty.

same case in guatanamo.

bush administration thinks that it's "guilty until proven innocent"
