Obama's Fifth Category: The "Untriable"
William Fisher, Truthout: "In his talk at the National Archives in May, President Obama referred to five categories of prisoners currently held at Guantanamo Bay. First, there are those who have violated American criminal laws and will be tried in federal courts. There may be as many as a dozen men in this category, five of whose trials were announced last week, including that of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed."

Obama and the Intelligence Community: An Interim Report Card
Melvin A. Goodman, Truthout: "President Obama has had nearly a year to make necessary changes in the intelligence community and the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). While he has been successful in addressing the CIA's renditions, detentions and interrogations programs, he has failed to appoint leaders willing to address the culture of cover-up that exists at the CIA and to make the necessary strategic changes. Until President Obama is willing to address the militarization and centralization of the intelligence community, he will retain his grade of C+ in managing the community."
