...Corporal Wassef Ali Hassoun, who briefly appeared to have been kidnapped in Iraq last June only to resurface in Lebanon unharmed, recently disappeared again, failing to return after a holiday leave from his base in North Carolina, where his pretrial hearing was being held; he is now on the Naval Criminal Investigative Service's most-wanted fugitive list. In what may be the most desperate attempt to avoid going back to Iraq, Army Specialist Marquise Roberts, 23, allegedly had his wife's cousin shoot him in the leg and then told police he had been caught in random crossfire...

The female Army interrogator repeatedly asked the shackled Saudi, "Who sent you to Arizona?" but the 21-year-old said nothing.

Within a few months, as the invasion of Afghanistan reached its climax, hundreds of captured al-Qaeda fighters and irregulars fighting for the Taliban regime were shipped to the naval base at Guant??namo Bay for interrogation. Gonzales wrote a memo to Bush in January 2002 that described aspects of the Geneva protocols as "quaint" and "obsolete." A few weeks later, Bush signed an order deeming al-Qaeda combatants "unlawful" and thus not deserving of prisoner-of-war status or the protections Geneva provided. "The war on terrorism," wrote Bush, "... ushered in not by us but by terrorists, requires...
