The Bush administration is yielding nothing in its campaign to create special military commissions to try those designated terror suspects or "unlawful combatants." Its proposed legislation, if enacted by Congress, would confer legal legitimacy on the same kind of special tribunals the Supreme Court described as unconstitutional in its recent Hamdan v. Rumsfeld decision. Those tribunals would be permitted to employ hearsay evidence, testimony obtained through torture and other dubious methods, withhold evidence from the accused, and other practices long forbidden by the Anglo-Saxon tradition of due process under law.
