Taliban gains foothold in Justice Dept
Had to read this twice. House Republicans complained for weeks than many of Obama’s political appointeesto the US Justice Dept —defended terrorists. In fact, Congressmen claimed that Eric Holder and Obama were stacking the Justice Dept with top officials sympathetic to "enemy combatants."The problem is simply conflict of interest. Given inside knowledge of terrorist strategies, what are these lawyers doing in top Justice positions? Seriously, whose side are they on, is a fair question.
You can’t make this up. This is truly stranger than fiction.

Jonathan Cedarbaum, in the Office of Legal Counsel, and Eric Columbus, who works under the deputy attorney general, were part of a legal defense team for Bosnian Algerian detainees and brought a case to the Supreme Court that resulted in the right of captives to challenge their detention.
