This past week saw major developments in the Guantánamo military commissions. As Ben reported, on Friday, the DC Circuit published an opinion denying mandamus relief to Omar Khadr. Those paying attention to the military commissions will note the similarity between this opinion and last year’s DC Circuit decision in another detainee petition, that of Al-Nashiri.
