UPDATE: Khadr pleads "guilty"
CNN reports Clinton-Cannon meeting on plea deal


the plea deal will not only end the military commission process for Khadr, but will enable the US to avoid the shame of placing a child soldier on trial. "The administration that claims they want to restore human rights is making history with prosecuting a child soldier in war crimes for the first time since World War II. [Military commissions] are completely incapable of providing a fair trial. Anyone who's accused of a terrorism crime should be prosecuted in US courts." -Â ACLU Human Rights Program researcher Jennifer Turner, c/o Nadia Prupis at truth-out.org
