In brief A Minnesota jury acquitted seven anti-war protesters of trespassing charges stemming from a protest at the Minneapolis National Guard recruiting office in March 2008. The protest followed a march on the University of Minnesota campus on the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the Iraq war. After the march, a group of protesters staged a demonstration in the hallway outside the locked National Guard recruiting center. Sixteen activists were arrested and charged with trespassing. Seven protesters chose to fight their case with the help of the National Lawyers Guild. They presented a "claim of right" defense, arguing that the constitution protected their right to protest against the war in the National Guard recruiting office. One defendant, Bill Drebenstedt, a former U.S. army reservist and National Guardsman, explained: "I believed when I went to that building that I had every right to be there … I was obligated to express my opposition to an illegal and immoral war." ...

Soldiers escort an enemy combatant The War on Terror suffered a major lexical loss yesterday when the Obama administration tossed the legalistic euphemism, and Bush invention, "enemy combatant" into the dustbin of shameful history . The Bush administration invented the term in order to circumvent preexisting legal structures that gave the accused an inconvenient array of rights. Observers debated how significant a departure this move means for the overall program of American extraterritorial law enforcement/prosecution of those who use politically-motivated violence against institutions and individuals. It did not set anyone free yet, and the resulting institutional framework is still taking shape, so it is hard to tell. In filings, the kidnap victims previously known as "enemy combatants," are now "detainees." And non-citizen detainees have no great experience with the United States. Some saw the detention camp has half-empty: "What's important about it is it's a plan on how they will evaluate Guantánamo detainees and future detainees," said Eugene R. Fidell, -Military law Professor at Yale University. "It sets the bar higher than it had been set in the Bush administration."
