Persons who damage "protected property" of the U S military will become liable to indefenite periods of imprisonment under the terms of a new draft law currently being formulated in Washington. Military Commissions will try suspects. Evidence to be used against any suspect need not be shown to the accused person. The accused does not require to be present and the trial can be postponed for years according to last friday's Washington Post. The accused will have the services a U S military lawyer. Hearsay evidence will be admissible, including hearsay evidence of those "rendered" to secret prisons for torture under the terms of the proposed law. The Militiary Commissions can also give life sentences or pass the death sentence. The law, if passed, will be aimed at those the Bush administration regards as "engaged in hostilities" and it applys to acts from killing to damaging "protected property"
