Human Rights, the Law and the Ongoing Threat of Terror

Hosted by
The transition from Bush to Obama has not eliminated the threat of terrorists who want to attack the country. Is Obama being forced to adopt some of the same counter-measures he criticized in last year's campaign? We hear about indefinite detention, rendition and what some refer to as "torture lite." Also, a new American military offensive in Afghanistan, and what Saddam Hussein told the FBI.
