When the Bush administration agreed to release Australian David Hicks after almost 6 years in captivity, they did so only on the condition that he first sign a document stating that he was not abused and that he also agree -- as The Australian put it -- to an "extraordinary 12-month gag order that prevent[ed] Hicks from speaking publicly about the actions to which he has pleaded guilty or the circumstances surrounding his capture, interrogation and detention," a gag order which "also silence[d] family members and any third party."

So, the United States expects it's prisoners to observe a legal document, but that same government does not hold itself to legal documents that it is signatory to. Can you spell h-y-p-o-c-r-i-t-e?

"The US is abandoning its use of the term "enemy combatants" to describe terror suspects - ending a key policy of the Bush administration."

So, What are they calling the people being held now?
