Description
An account of the resource
The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001.

Outies,
Please take note of the following terminology corrections. I see each
committee who has put up postings, wiki pages, and/or created leaflets
should correct their own documents.

X and all,
If Wilmar is too far away from campus, then I really don't know what the
point
is of meeting off campus -- it's only on the 900 block of Jenifer St.,
parallel
to Williamson St. on Madison's near-eastside. If there's a potential
problem
with that distance, then I think we should remain in the campus area and if
we
meet in the campus area, why don't we just continue to meet on campus? I
don't
recall what the idea of meeting off-campus was, except that it was a good
idea
and we should get out in the community. Does anyone remember any other
reason(s)?
In rethinking it, I don't see any reason why we shouldn't continue to meet
on
campus until we get other constituencies involved which would point to
meaningful different meeting sites. It would also solve the problem of
spending
that money and more in the future, plus not have to deal with a difficult
situation of trying to organize student transportation, on a space for our
meetings which will start to eat up our budget, which could be better spent
on
more important things. I also remember X reporting that we were making
less and less donations at the meetings.
A woman from Richland Center also contacted me because of Ech's Guest Column
piece in the State Journal. She found the madpeace website that way and
looked
up the name Cedder and found me, emailed me. They're a small group and I
told
them that we'd very much like to help them, involve in any way we can. She
also
sent me a letter from a 59 year old dairy farmer who lives there part time
and
in Nicaragua part time. He was involved the Vietnam War and his letter was
mostt amazing; long too. I sent it to X of Cap Times and also
sent
it to the media committee to edit so it might fit in as an OpEd or Guest
Column
length for all the other print media. X, do you know where tthis
stands? I
think getting it out, the sooner, the better because it's such an incredible
piece and because he lives outside of "The Peoples Republic of Madison."
Peace, X

X/cc,
On Sunday I said I'd get a copy of the USAA/Patriot Act. Al-awda just
emailed around a good summary, the bill itself being 273 pages long.
Unfortunately, I am not able to print emails from my computer. (GRRRR!).
Could anyone else on their list print this out for our use? Sorry I am not
able to do this.

The coord. comte mtg is Sunday TITU from 4 - 6:30 pm. Therefore 6:30 there
is the best I can do... Sounds like everyone can make it. Can X and
others bring hard copies of the drafts & other information and quotes that
have been emailed on the discuss list? I'd bring it but I can't print from
my email (grr!) This sounds like a working session with paper and pens! :)
Thanks.

Please remember to update the "MEETINGS" page on the web site with your next
committee meeting date, time, place. Many of these entries are out of date.
It's really simple, just go to that page, click on EDIT at the bottom, and
change the existing text for your committee.
I'll work on getting the home page updated this evening - Key events needing
to be posted are the next meeting and the 11/17 soa event for sure, maybe
others.

Shooting at Qatari air base
BBC World News Report
Officials in Qatar say that security forces have shot
dead a Qatari national after he opened fire on an air
base in the Gulf emirate.
The man, named as Abdullah Mubarak al-Hajri, opened
fire at 1030 (0730 GMT) on Wednesday on the Al-Adid
base 40 km (25 miles) south of the capital Doha, the
official Qatari news agency reported.
According to the US embassy in Doha, an unknown number
of Americans were injured in the attack, but in
Washington the Pentagon said it had no such
information.
The air base is being used by US military aircraft, in
line with a military cooperation agreement between the
two countries.
the BBC Middle East correspondent says the attack will
heighten fears of the Arab states rulers that their
populations are opposed to any support for the US-led
campaign against Afghanistan and the al-Qaeda network.
Security fears
The attack comes ahead of the opening of a World Trade
Organisation [WTO] conference in Doha on Friday.
Security is tight in the runup to the WTO meeting
WTO chief Mike Moore said the attack was not related
to the conference, and would not affect it.
Organisers of the conference have considered moving it
to a different venue following security fears in the
wake of the 11 September attacks, but Qatar fought to
keep it.
The United States trade representative, Robert
Zoellick, said he had decided to keep the size of his
delegation "as small as possible" for security
reasons.
Doha was originally chosen in an effort to stem the
likely mass of protesters, who were instrumental in
making the last WTO meeting in Seattle in 1999 an
ignominious failure.
Organisers expect 141 countries to attend the
conference, which runs from 9-13 November.

On Friday, November 16 at 12 noon-1 pm on WORT's
A Public Affair, Zoltan Grossman will again have as
his guest Robert Fisk, Middle East correspondent of
The Independent (London). Fisk's war dispatches from
Islamabad, Pakistan , can be seen at
http://www.independent.co.uk . The interview
will take place live from Beirut.
Robert Fisk was the first western journalist to
interview Osama Bin Laden, and one of the first to warn of
the consequences of the West's tilt toward Islamist
militants in the region. Fisk's harsh assessment
of the new/old rulers of Kabul, the Northern Alliance,
can be seen below, as can a similar new statement from
the Revolutionary Association of Women of
Afghanistan (RAWA).
Tune in to 89.9fm, and call 256-2001 on Friday to
ask questions.

No Surprise at Rumors of New Atrocities by Our 'Foot-Soldiers'
by Robert Fisk
The Northern Alliance's sudden victories in Afghanistan may be good news
for the West but the bad news is not far behind. The Uzbek, Tadjik and
Hazara gunmen who make up this rag-tag army have a bloody reputation for
torturing and executing prisoners which ? if resumed in the coming days
? will
plunge America and Britain into a moral abyss.
Chilling stories of more than 100 pro-Taliban Pakistani fighters shot
dead after their surrender in Mazar-i-Sharif ? and of Alliance gunmen
"roaming the streets'' of the abandoned city ? will not come as a
surprise to
those who are aware of the atrocities committed by America's new allies
during
the 1992-96 fighting in Kabul.
For the Americans ? and for the minuscule British component of the
West's military forces inside Afghanistan ? the behavior of the Northern
Alliance presents a grave problem. As our "foot-soldiers" are in
Afghanistan, we
cannot disclaim responsibility for human rights abuses by the Alliance's
gunmen; yet neither the Americans nor the British appear to have tried
to control the army they are now helping. Indeed, it seems they may not
even be able to prevent the Alliance from entering Kabul.
The massacres committed by malicious fighting in the name of outside
powers have regularly brought shame upon their more powerful allies. The
Contras in Nicaragua and the Phalangist militiamen in Lebanon
contaminated their
respective American and Israeli masters ? the latter in the notorious
Palestinian camp massacres of Sabra and Chatila in 1982. A glance at the
Alliance's track record of rape, pillage and street executions in Kabul
between 1992 and 1996 suggests that the so-called Allies ? America,
Britain and just about anyone else who wants to join in ? have good
reason to
exert their influence over the newly victorious militiamen from the
north of
Afghanistan.
In Mazar-i-Sharif and Herat there are comparatively few Pashtun
communities, which traditionally favor the Taliban.
A bit further south the Alliance will find itself among its ethnic
enemies. In 1997, Mazar's Hazara defenders killed more than 600 Taliban
militiamen who had taken over the city and then massacred dozens of
Pakistani
students who had accompanied the Taliban into the region. In later
bloodbaths,
thousands of Taliban prisoners were shot into mass graves, with dozens
more Pakistanis. A Northern Alliance turncoat, General Pahlawan Malik,
subsequently executed 2,000 Taliban prisoners of war who had been
tortured and starved before being put to death.
Many were drowned in wells. Others met a more carefully planned death.
One of General Malik's generals recalled: "At night when it was quiet
and
dark we took about 150 Taliban prisoners, blindfolded them, tied their
hands
behind their backs and drove them in truck containers out to the desert.
We lined them up 10 at a time, in front of holes in the ground, and
opened
fire. It took about six nights.''
On other occasions Taliban prisoners were locked inside containers in
mid-summer; 1,250 were deliberately asphyxiated in this way, their
corpses dragged from the containers, blackened by the heat.
Could it happen again? There is no reason to believe the Alliance has
been taking lessons in human rights. It has been receiving ammunition
from
Russia and logistics from the United States. Photographs in yesterday's
Pakistani papers showed Alliance gunmen leading a small party of Western
troops
through the terrain of northern Afghanistan. But our soldiers are highly
unlikely to have been distributing copies of the Geneva Convention to
their new friends.

Robert Fisk: Our friends are killers, crooks and torturers
07 October 2001
The Independent (London)
www.independent.co.uk
Almost four weeks after the crimes against humanity in New
York and Washington, we are playing politics on the hoof and
allying ourselves to some of the nastiest butchers around.
Mr Blair may believe that "the values we believe in should shine
through what we do in Afghanistan" but few of our "friends" in
the region have many values, and some of them have a lot of
blood on their hands. For as we search for facilities and
jumping-off points and air space and access -- and we are now
creating policies by the day -- we are being asked to forget a
lot of recent history.
First out of the memory goes Chechnya. The savage
repression of this Muslim republic -- complete with mass
executions, mass rape and mass graves -- was the brainchild
of Vladimir Putin, the former serving KGB officer into whose
soul Mr Bush believes he peered in Slovenia.
Mr Putin's assault on Grozny was timed to bring him the
Russian presidency, and within weeks his indisciplined troops
had turned the rubble of Chechnya into something approaching
Afghanistan. Mr Putin now seems our strongest ally in the "war
against terror". And why not, when he is himself such a master
of terror?
Second out of the memory goes the nasty little dictatorship run
by the Saudi royal family whose religious "mouttawa" police
taught the Taliban how to run their Ministry for the Prevention of
Vice and Promotion of Virtue.
We should forget that women are not even allowed to drive a
car in Saudi Arabia, we must ignore the weekly
head-choppings outside mosques, the country's disgraceful
and unfair judicial system -- everything, in fact, which might
remind us of Saudi Arabia's carbon copy, the Taliban, whose
destruction we are now seeking.
Then we must turn our attention away from the not terribly
democratic regime of General Pervez Musharraf. Only a little
while ago, the general was the Pakistani army commander who
overthrew the democratically elected -- though corrupt --
government of Nawaz Sharif. Indeed, General Musharraf was
rather keen to hang Mr Sharif until President Clinton dropped
by Islamabad early last year to condemn Osama bin Laden
and appeal for Sharif's life.
Only a few weeks ago, the general appointed himself president.
And while the world tut-tutted then, it now respectfully accords
General Musharraf the title of "president" too.
Fourth down the memory hole goes our new friend Uzbekistan
whose President Islam Karimov currently holds 7,000 political
prisoners in his jails. There is no free press, no political
opposition.
Mikhail Ardzinov, one of the few human rights activists in
Uzbekistan -- who was brutally beaten by Karimov's secret
police two years ago -- now says that although America had
promised not to sell out human rights to get Karimov's
friendship, "We know that the tone will change now". Too true.
Karimov has promised that his air space can be "used in the
fight against terrorism for humanitarian and security aims".
And this is not the moment to remind anyone that Uzbekistan
has its own reasons to destroy the Taliban -- not just because
the Taliban has been exporting its revolution over the
Afghan-Uzbek border, but because President Karimov wants to
run an oil pipeline through Afghanistan to a Pakistani port, a
project that will help to fund his bankrupt police state (as well
as a few American oil companies).
One of Karimov's allies is the anti-Taliban war criminal Abdul
Rashid Dustum whose men went on a rampage of rape in
Kabul in the early Nineties and who, for several months, went
to fight for the Taliban after receiving a massive bribe for his
change of allegiance. So it's amnesia too for the anarchy and
mass human rights abuses perpetrated when the Northern
Alliance -- our friends in northern Afghanistan -- ruled Kabul.
We must remember with sorrow its former leader, Ahmed Shah
Massoud, a genuine patriot murdered by Arab suicide bombers
on 9 September, but we must forget his colleague Rasoul
Sayaf whose men used Shia women as sex slaves in the early
Nineties.
Now it's true that Churchill, when told in 1941 that Germany
had invaded the Soviet Union and that Stalin was now his ally,
announced that if Hitler invaded Hell, he would at least make "a
favourable reference" to the Devil in the House of Commons.
But we're not making any references at all to our "friends" in
the region. We have drawn the shining bright sword and have
no time to worry if the hands we shake are covered in blood.
This is a war of democracy versus evil, according to President
Bush. It's just that there's not an awful lot of democracy
around.

IT AIN'T OVER 'TILL IT'S OVER:
What to watch for in Afghanistan
By X
The fall of Kabul and other Afghan
cities has led many Americans to
believe that the war is swiftly drawing to a
close. The U.S. media is creating the
impression that the takeover has brought 23
years of war, instability and oppression to an
end. Nothing could be farther from
the truth. Paraphrasing Yogi Berra,
the war ain't over 'till it's over.
First, in a country that traditionally
has lacked centralized authority, the takeover
of the capital city does not yet mean the
conquest of all of Afghanistan. Taliban
forces are regrouping in and around their
de facto capital of Kandahar,
where some factions plan to wage a
guerrilla war. Afghans did not beat
the British and Russian invaders by
holding the cities, but by waging ferocious
resistance from mountain strongholds.
If Taliban or other Pashtun fighters launch a
Chechen-style hit-and-run defense, the
war could drag on for years.
The result of a new guerrilla war
would be the complete ethnic partition
of Afghanistan into a Pashtun south and
non-Pashtun north. The media has highlighted
the renewed food aid shipments into
Afghanistan, but without noting that food
has been used by all sides as a weapon,
with militias seizing aid
shipments for their supporters, and blocking
food from their enemy's territory.
Second, the Northern Alliance rebels' seizure
of Kabul merely resets the clock
back to 1992, when as the mujahadin
they took the city from Najibullah's Communists.
Not only did the non-Pashtun mujahadin
execute Pashtuns, and legislate the first
limits on women's rights, but they quickly
turned on each other. Their four years of
in-fighting left 50,000 dead, and led Afghans
and the West to welcome the Taliban as
stabilizing "liberators" in 1996. Since then,
Northern Alliance rebels have had a reputation
as corrupt "looters and rapists," according
to a recent statement by the Revolutionary
Association of Women of Afghanistan
(RAWA), and have taken control
of up to 80 percent of Afghanistan's
opium trade. The returning Northern
Alliance rebels are again executing Pashtuns
in the city, much as returning Albanians
attacked Serbs in Kosovo two years ago.
But the Northern Alliance seizure
of Kabul gives it a central role in any new
Afghan "coalition" government, because
possession is nine-tenths of the law.
Third, even if the U.S. or U.N. manages
to form a shaky "coalition" government,
the conflict may only restart, as
it did in 1992 and in 1996. All Afghan
ethnic and political factions will assume
their claim to power will be recognized by
the U.S. powerbrokers. When they realize that
Washington intends to split the difference, some of
them may quickly turn on their former allies.
Washington attempted to build a multiethnic coalition
under the aging King Zahir Shah in
1992, and failed miserably. It tried to build
a similar coalition that same year in Somalia.
One of the fundamental errors made
by the U.S. in Somalia was an assumption that
its unifying intentions would magically satisfy
all militia factions. The other mistake it made
was to only recognize militia warlords as
legitimate political players, and ignore civil society
and clan elders. An Afghan regime that only patches
together the guys with the guns, and leaves out the
vast majority of Afghan women and men,
will merely reward the past two decades of
violence, and set up up another U.N. "peacekeeping"
force for failure.
The West supported the mujahadin takeover
of Kabul in 1992, the Taliban takeover in 1996,
and now the Northern Alliance takeover
in 2001. Its aims were usually to "liberate"
Afghanistan from the last regime it supported.
Washington's initial support for militant Islamist
groups in Afghanistan
(like Israel's support of Hamas, and Egypt's
support of the Muslim Brotherhood) ultimately
blew up in its face. Yet because the militant Islamists
are today virtually the force exploiting
public opposition to poverty, corruption,
and foreign occupation in the Muslim world,
repressing them only legitimizes their growing
popularity. Instead of backing or repressing far-right
Islamic populist groups, the West and its
client governments could be posing popular alternatives
to draw frustrated citizens away from them.
Instead, the U.S. is merely
repeating old mistakes by crushing the Taliban,
while hailing new Islamist militant groups such
as the Northern Alliance.
But there is a method to this madness, more
to U.S. aims in the region than is readily apparent.
Afghanistan has historically been in an
extremely strategic location straddling South Asia,
Central Asia, and the Middle East. Will the U.S.
attempt to use the current crisis to establish a permanent
presence in the region?
Each recent large U.S. intervention has left behind a
string of new military bases in a region where
they had never before had a foothold The
Gulf War left behind large U.S. bases in
Saudi Arabia and three other Gulf states--the main
Bin Laden grievance that fueled the September 11 attacks.
Military interventions in former Yugoslavia resulted in
U.S. bases in four countries, including
the sprawling Camp Bondsteel complex in
Kosovo. Were the military bases merely
built to aid the interventions, or did the interventions
occur partly in order to station the bases?
The U.S. military is inserting itself into
strategic areas of the world, and anchoring U.S.
geopolitical influence in these areas, at a very critical
time in history. With the rise of a new
European economic superpower, and
increased economic competition from
East Asia, U.S. economic power is perhaps
on the wane. But in military affairs,
the U.S. is still the unquestioned superpower.
Why not project that military dominance
into new strategic regions as
a future counterweight to its competitors?
French President Jacques Chirac
correctly viewed the U.S. role in the Persian
Guld as securing control over oil sources
for Europe and Japan. Afghanistan lies
along a proposed Unocal pipeline route
from new Caspian Sea oil fields to the Indian
Ocean. Allied checkpoints are now being
set up along the Afghan highways that
would serve as potential routes for the
pipeline.
Major tests for U.S. policy lie in the days
and weeks ahead. Will special forces switch
to fighting against guerrillas in Afghani
or Pakistani mountains? Will Bush
flatten Kandahar like Putin flattened the
Chechen capital of Grozny last year?
Will the Northern Alliance be allowed
to dominate Kabul (like the Kosovo
Liberation Army became the UN "police
force" in Kosovo)? Will a new "coalition"
government stay together, or only give a
seat at the table to anyone carrying a
Kalashnikov or RPG launcher?
Will Bin Laden really be captured, or
(like Saddam) be allowed to live in order
to justify a permanent stationing of U.S. troops?
Will anthrax be used as a new
excuse to bomb and invade Iraq?
Finally, will the new U.S. military
bases in Afghanistan, Uzbekistan,
Tajikistan and Pakistan become permanent
outposts guarding a new oil infrastructure?
A failure of the U.S. to pull out of the region
after the war, to leave behind a government
that truly represents Afghani civilians, or
to lure Muslims away from militant
groups, will only give impetus to new
Bin Ladens, and to future September 11s.

Dear Madison City Alders,
I have grown up in Madison and currently attend UW-Madison as an
undergraduate.
I am writing to encourage you to adopt the new proposition, Humanitarian
Priorities in Afghanistan, that is before you next week. Growing up here in
Madison, I never knew how special this place was until I was old enough to
travel and live outside of it for a while. Madison is truly one of the most
collectively aware and active places I have ever been in my short life, and
I have very high hopes for the humanitarian values that we advocate as a
community. The proposal before you is a very logical extension of the
compassion that people in this city express all the time, towards each other
and the rest of the world. I really hope you will all adopt the proposition
so that our city can stand proudly by it's long time value of human rights.
The impending tragedy facing the Afghani people is something I cannot bear
to think about, let alone allow to happen in my name. I hope this city can
stand together in affirming our vision for a just and peaceful world.
We are looking to you to make a difference. Thank you for your time, X

I'm also cautious about bringing the coalition directly into the orbit of the fine people in US Out Now, Jews for Equal Justice, Solidarity and by extension SWAIG... I think their commitment and perspective are wonderful. I'm proud to work with them. But the MAPC began as a broader based coalition than this. Working on a project by project basis is different from publishing a newsletter together. I am against the MAPC somehow entering a long term agreement to publish a newsletter with these good people.

If you would like to change your proposal to the publication of a joint newsletter next month, I would approve. But commiting to a regular monthly publication, welllll...
I'm a little shy about approving this proposal and the reasons are a combination of fiscal and political caution. If MAPC formally produces a newsletter, how will we assure a continuing commitment to appeal to a broad base of peace oriented people? If we commit to supporting $500 publication costs, then we're also talking about that plus an occasional $400 or $500 distribution costs to get those 10,000 8 pagers folded into the Isthmus and we're up to $1000 a month. Sounds like a good agenda item for the General Membership meeting. I would prefer occasional ad hoc efforts rather than a joint commitment to publish a regular periodical.
Incidentally, the anti war movement may be a minority, but it remains to be seen how small it is. I've talked and talked and can't find many people who are for the war.

Subject: [MAPC-coord] PROPOSAL: MAPC/SWAIG Joint Newsletter
Educating the public needs to be our number one priority right now, given just how small a minority the anti-war movement is. MAPC should be disseminating information and analysis on the widest possible basis, and using that information to help bring people into the organization and establish our identify in the community. As Zoltan said at the student teach-in, we need to be thinking in terms of 10,000 copies of our literature, not a few hundred.
Following discussions with the South West Asia Information Group, I am proposing that MAPC & SWAIG publish a joint monthly newsletter.
The newsletter would be published as an 8-page newsprint tabloid. MAPC would be responsible for content of pages 7 and 8, plus about a quarter of page one. SWAIG would be responsible for the remaining content.
SWAIG's content would be similar to what was contained in its initial tabloid -- anslysis of the region, the war, and U.S. foreign policy. MAPC's content would be a calendar of events, information from the various Working Groups on their upcoming activities, reports on past activities, and other content designed to motivate readers to get involved. Solicitation of donations would also be included.
Approximately 10,000 copies of each issue would be published, requiring a major effort at distribution through literature tables, bundles left at stores, co-ops, etc., passing out at events or to pedestrians, and perhaps even door-to-door distribution in selected neighborhoods.
The printing cost for 10,000 copies of a 8-page tabloid would be approximately $500.00, using the non-union printer that SWAIG used for its tabloid. (I would prefer to transfer the project to a union shop, preferably Port Publications in Port Washington; this may require an adjustment in either the budget or number of copies.) This cost would be covered by MAPC.
I would expect that the newsletter would generate $100 to $200 per month in new donations, based on people clipping a donation request coupon. Another option would be to sell advertisements in the newsletter to supportive businesses, co-ops, and organizations. (SWAIG opposed this option, based on possible conflicts with the Madison Insurgent. I will be meeting with the Insurgent collective to discuss whether they would in fact have objections to this.)
If finances do not permit monthly publication, Plan B would be for alternating between the tabloid and a 2-page, 8.5 by 11, smaller circulation, newsletter containing only MAPC organizational info.
Because MAPC's contribution to the content would reflect the activities of all of the Working Groups, I believe that the newsletter should be coordinated at the CC level. (I ran this past O&E, who agreed.) Options for filling the newsletter editor position would include:
(a) One of the existing CC members could take on this project.
(b) A new at-large CC position could be created
(c) A Newsletter Working Group could be created; or
(d) A volunteer who is not officially on the CC. but is willing to attend CC meetings, could be located.

Subject: [MAPC-coord] Proposal for agenda Tuesday, and response to fasting proposal
I would like to request that the issues of (1) International Solidarity, and (2) the workload of some committees be put on the agenda.
There has been some discussion of having another committee, International Solidarity. Someone said that this is the responsibility of the Education/Outreach committee, and the suggestion thereby died. If I might respectfully disagree, I think this should be discussed.
I am not a member of that committee, but it would seem that the Education/Outreach committee has a mighty full plate. In addition to producing literature, helping to produce teach-ins and other educational activities, they are the committee charged with outreach to the rest of the community (networking is a full-time job in itself), and recruiting members of specific communities to increase the diversity of MAPC (this is also critical, time-consuming work). And then, some weeks ago, when a couple of folks volunteered to assemble names for a Speakers' Bureau, they were told that this, also, is part of the E/O's work. With all due respect, that is a great deal of work for a committee of volunteers. We do not need to burn people out. Let's divide some of this work up.
Secondly, the proposal of a fast is a terrific idea, IF we can get good mainstream** media coverage. It would be a shame to have folks making such a huge sacrifice if that effort were to go unnoticed by the larger community.

WHITE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE
Office of the Spokesman
Washington, DC
November 13, 2001
Detention, Treatment, and Trial of Certain Non-Citizens in the War Against
Terrorism
Military Order
By the authority vested in me as President and as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States by the
Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the Authorization for Use of Military Force Joint
Resolution (Public Law 107-40, 115 Stat. 224) and sections 821 and 836 of title 10, United States Code, it is hereby
ordered as follows:
Section 1. Findings.
(a) International terrorists, including members of al Qaida, have carried out attacks on United States diplomatic and
military personnel and facilities abroad and on citizens and property within the United States on a scale that has created a
state of armed conflict that requires the use of the United States Armed Forces.
(b) In light of grave acts of terrorism and threats of terrorism, including the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, on the
headquarters of the United States Department of Defense in the national capital region, on the World Trade Center in New
York, and on civilian aircraft such as in Pennsylvania, I proclaimed a national emergency on September 14, 2001 (Proc.
7463, Declaration of National Emergency by Reason of Certain Terrorist Attacks).
(c) Individuals acting alone and in concert involved in international terrorism possess both the capability and the intention to
undertake further terrorist attacks against the United States that, if not detected and prevented, will cause mass deaths,
mass injuries, and massive destruction of property, and may place at risk the continuity of the operations of the United
States Government.
(d) The ability of the United States to protect the United States and its citizens, and to help its allies and other cooperating
nations protect their nations and their citizens, from such further terrorist attacks depends in significant part upon using
the United States Armed Forces to identify terrorists and those who support them, to disrupt their activities, and to
eliminate their ability to conduct or support such attacks.
(e) To protect the United States and its citizens, and for the effective conduct of military operations and prevention of
terrorist attacks, it is necessary for individuals subject to this order pursuant to section 2 hereof to be detained, and, when
tried, to be tried for violations of the laws of war and other applicable laws by military tribunals.
more
(OVER)
2
(f) Given the danger to the safety of the United States and the nature of international terrorism, and to the extent provided
by and under this order, I find consistent with section 836 of title 10, United States Code, that it is not practicable to apply
in military commissions under this order the principles of law and the rules of evidence generally recognized in the trial of
criminal cases in the United States district courts.
(g) Having fully considered the magnitude of the potential deaths, injuries, and property destruction that would result from
potential acts of terrorism against the United States, and the probability that such acts will occur, I have determined that
an extraordinary emergency exists for national defense purposes, that this emergency constitutes an urgent and
compelling govern-ment interest, and that issuance of this order is necessary to meet the emergency.
Sec. 2. Definition and Policy.
(a) The term "individual subject to this order" shall mean any individual who is not a United States citizen with respect to
whom I determine from time to time in writing that:
(1) there is reason to believe that such individual, at the relevant times,
(i) is or was a member of the organization known as al Qaida;
(ii) has engaged in, aided or abetted, or conspired to commit, acts of international terrorism, or acts in preparation therefor,
that have caused, threaten to cause, or have as their aim to cause, injury to or adverse effects on the United States, its
citizens, national security, foreign policy, or economy; or
(iii) has knowingly harbored one or more individuals described in subparagraphs (i) or (ii) of subsection 2(a)(1) of this order;
and
(2) it is in the interest of the United States that such individual be subject to this order.
(b) It is the policy of the United States that the Secretary of Defense shall take all necessary measures to ensure that any
individual subject to this order is detained in accordance with section 3, and, if the individual is to be tried, that such
individual is tried only in accordance with section 4.
(c) It is further the policy of the United States that any individual subject to this order who is not already under the control
of the Secretary of Defense but who is under the control of any other officer or agent of the United States or any State
shall, upon delivery of a copy of such written determination to such officer or agent, forthwith be placed under the control of
the Secretary of Defense.
Sec. 3. Detention Authority of the Secretary of Defense. Any individual subject to this order shall be --
(a) detained at an appropriate location designated by the Secretary of Defense outside or within the United States;
(b) treated humanely, without any adverse distinction based on race, color, religion, gender, birth, wealth, or any similar
criteria;
more
3
(c) afforded adequate food, drinking water, shelter, clothing, and medical treatment;
(d) allowed the free exercise of religion consistent with the requirements of such detention; and
(e) detained in accordance with such other conditions as the Secretary of Defense may prescribe.
Sec. 4. Authority of the Secretary of Defense Regarding Trials of Individuals Subject to this Order.
(a) Any individual subject to this order shall, when tried, be tried by military commission for any and all offenses triable by
military commission that such individual is alleged to have committed, and may be punished in accordance with the
penalties provided under applicable law, including life imprisonment or death.
(b) As a military function and in light of the findings in section 1, including subsection (f) thereof, the Secretary of Defense
shall issue such orders and regulations, including orders for the appointment of one or more military commissions, as may
be necessary to carry out subsection (a) of this section.
(c) Orders and regulations issued under subsection (b) of this section shall include, but not be limited to, rules for the
conduct of the proceedings of military commissions, including pretrial, trial, and post-trial procedures, modes of proof,
issuance of process, and qualifications of attorneys, which shall at a minimum provide for --
(1) military commissions to sit at any time and any place, consistent with such guidance regarding time and place as the
Secretary of Defense may provide;
(2) a full and fair trial, with the military commission sitting as the triers of both fact and law;
(3) admission of such evidence as would, in the opinion of the presiding officer of the military commission (or instead, if
any other member of the commission so requests at the time the presiding officer renders that opinion, the opinion of the
commission rendered at that time by a majority of the commission), have probative value to a reasonable person;
(4) in a manner consistent with the protection of information classified or classifiable under Executive Order 12958 of April
17, 1995, as amended, or any successor Executive Order, protected by
statute or rule from unauthorized disclosure, or otherwise protected by law, (A) the handling of, admission into evidence of,
and access to materials and information, and (B) the conduct, closure of, and access to proceedings;
(5) conduct of the prosecution by one or more attorneys designated by the Secretary of Defense and conduct of the
defense by attorneys for the individual subject to this order;
(6) conviction only upon the concurrence of two-thirds of the members of the commission present at the time of the vote, a
majority being present;
(7) sentencing only upon the concurrence of two-thirds of the members of the commission present at the time of the vote,
a majority being present; and
more
(OVER)
4
(8) submission of the record of the trial, including any conviction or sentence, for review and final decision by me or by the
Secretary of Defense if so designated by me for that purpose.
Sec. 5. Obligation of Other Agencies to Assist the Secretary of Defense.
Departments, agencies, entities, and officers of the United States shall, to the maximum extent permitted by law, provide
to the Secretary of Defense such assistance as he may request to implement this order.
Sec. 6. Additional Authorities of the Secretary of Defense.
(a) As a military function and in light of the findings in section 1, the Secretary of Defense shall issue such orders and
regulations as may be necessary to carry out any of the provisions of this order.
(b) The Secretary of Defense may perform any of his functions or duties, and may exercise any of the powers provided to
him under this order (other than under section 4(c)(8) hereof) in accordance with section 113(d) of title 10, United States
Code.
Sec. 7. Relationship to Other Law and Forums.
(a) Nothing in this order shall be construed to --
(1) authorize the disclosure of state secrets to any person not otherwise authorized to have access to them;
(2) limit the authority of the President as Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces or the power of the President to grant
reprieves and pardons; or
(3) limit the lawful authority of the Secretary of Defense, any military commander, or any other officer or agent of the United
States or of any State to detain or try any person who is not an individual subject to this order.
(b) With respect to any individual subject to this order --
(1) military tribunals shall have exclusive jurisdiction with respect to offenses by the individual; and
(2) the individual shall not be privileged to seek any remedy or maintain any proceeding, directly or indirectly, or to have
any such remedy or proceeding sought on the individual's behalf, in (i) any
court of the United States, or any State thereof, (ii) any court of any foreign nation, or (iii) any international tribunal.
(c) This order is not intended to and does not create any right, benefit, or privilege, substantive or procedural, enforceable
at law or equity by any party, against the United States, its departments, agencies, or other entities, its officers or
employees, or any other person.
(d) For purposes of this order, the term "State" includes any State, district, territory, or possession of the United States.
more
5
(e) I reserve the authority to direct the Secretary of Defense, at any time hereafter, to transfer to a governmental authority
control of any individual subject to this order. Nothing in this order shall be construed to limit the authority of any such
governmental authority to prosecute any individual for whom control is transferred.

Must Americans sacrifice their liberty to achieve

The Big Lie
Brigid McMenamin, Forbes.com, 09.17.01, 1:10 PM ET
Must Americans sacrifice their liberty to achieve
safety? The knee-jerk reaction to the Sept. 11
terrorist attacks on the U.S. has been to say yes. Two
out of three Americans are willing to surrender civil
liberties to stop terrorism, according to an
ABC-Washington Post poll taken the day after the
attacks.
"I'm puking every time I hear that," says Baltimore
lawyer Thomas Bowden. "The idea is to compromise their
lifestyle. We keep ours the same."
It's also irresponsible to suggest waiving civil
rights. Take the bill passed by the Senate two days
after the attack. It would permit police to tape
phones and seize Internet records without a search
warrant. That would leave Americans vulnerable to even
greater evils.
"It is something we will all regret down the road,"
says Timothy Lynch, a constitutional law expert with
the Cato Institute, a Washington, D.C.-based think
tank.
Most threatened is the Fourth Amendment prohibition
against unreasonable searches. Does that safeguard
have to be scrapped to search airline passengers more
thoroughly? No, it doesn't.
Airports already use machines sensitive enough to
detect a box cutter. Luggage and people are already
searched, but these searches don't raise
constitutional issues, unless a government is
involved. The Constitution restricts only official
actions, not private ones. Courts agree that people
can't expect much privacy in airports anyhow.
What about when police are involved? They usually need
a search warrant before raiding a home or tapping the
phone. But police seldom have trouble persuading a
judge to sign one. The standards are lax, especially
when a terrorist is involved. This week America Online
(nyse: AOL - news - people) and EarthLink (nasdaq:
ELNK - news - people) cooperated with the FBI
investigation by providing information about certain
subscribers, according to the Washington Post.
"This is already constitutional," explains lawyer
James Harper, a privacy advocate and former counsel to
the House Judiciary Committee. So why waive the Fourth
Amendment and allow the government to eavesdrop and
seize records without a warrant? Is the Justice
Department trying to exploit a crisis for illicit
purposes?
"Sometimes they take advantage of these tragedies,"
sighs Lynch, citing antiterrorist laws inspired by the
bombing of the Federal building in Oklahoma City in
1996. Sacrificing rights didn't work then and it's
dishonest for law enforcement to pretend that waiving
civil rights now will work, either.
Even if giving up some rights would help some,
Americans shouldn't do it. That would be a victory for
the terrorists, who sought to destroy a way of life.
Even temporary measures tend to become permanent, as
the British have discovered since the 1970s, when they
waived some rights to thwart bombings by the Irish
Republican Army.
Giving up rights might even lead the U.S. into
autocratic rule--which is what the terrorists want and
what the Founding Fathers were trying to prevent when
they wrote the Bill of Rights. America is built on a
healthy distrust of government power. In the words of
Ben Franklin, "Those who trade liberty for security
will have neither."

Madison Area Peace Coalition E-mails
Description
An account of the resource
The Madison Area Peace Coalition (MAPC) formed fourteen days after the September 11 attacks to oppose (among other goals) the use of U.S. military, economic, or political force – whether direct or proxy, overt or covert -- "that violates the sovereignty or human rights of any nation or people." The Archive has assembled here e-mails exchanges from MAPC dating from the group's founding until late November 2001.

Hi all,
There was a nice little blurb about the Friendship Fast in the Cap Times on
Wednesday. Thanks, media committee! Does anyone know if the Wisconsin
State
Journal ran anything on the Fast, yesterday or today?
Peace,
