Subject: US habeaus corpus
To:


a contact from the US told me the following - excerpt :

*"living in the usa is like falling into a rabbit hole...*
*habeaus corpus <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_corpus> has been
suspended..torture is legal...killing of US citizens is legal..
the right is trying to destroy any resistance to their corporate state...
never before has an insurrection been more needed."*

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Habeas_corpus_in_the_United_States>excerpts :
*

***The Suspension Clause <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspension_Clause> of
the United States
Constitution<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Constitution>
 specifically included the English common
law<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_law>
 procedure in Article
One<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Article_One_of_the_United_States_Constitution>,
Section 9, clause 2, which demands that "The privilege of the writ of habeas
corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion
the public safety may require it."*

during the War on Terrorism <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_on_Terrorism>,
the right to petition for a writ of habeas corpus was substantially
curtailed for persons accused of engaging in certain conduct
