WASHINGTON, Nov. 13 /U.S. Newswire/ -- The following was
released today by the White House:
MILITARY ORDER: DETENTION, TREATMENT, AND TRIAL OF CERTAIN
NON-CITIZENS IN THE WAR AGAINST TERRORISM
By the authority vested in me as President and as Commander in
Chief of the Armed Forces of the United States by the Constitution
and the laws of the United States of America, including the
Authorization for Use of Military Force Joint Resolution (Public
Law 107-40, 115 Stat. 224) and sections 821 and 836 of title 10,
United States Code, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Section 1. Findings.
(a) International terrorists, including members of al Qaida,
have carried out attacks on United States diplomatic and military
personnel and facilities abroad and on citizens and property within
the United States on a scale that has created a state of armed
conflict that requires the use of the United States Armed Forces.
(b) In light of grave acts of terrorism and threats of
terrorism,
including the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001, on the
headquarters of the United States Department of Defense in the
national capital region, on the World Trade Center in New York, and
on civilian aircraft such as in Pennsylvania, I proclaimed a
national emergency on September 14, 2001 (Proc. 7463, Declaration
of National Emergency by Reason of Certain Terrorist Attacks).
(c) Individuals acting alone and in concert involved in
international terrorism possess both the capability and the
intention to undertake further terrorist attacks against the United
States that, if not detected and prevented, will cause mass deaths,
mass injuries, and massive destruction of property, and may place
at risk the continuity of the operations of the United States
Government.
(d) The ability of the United States to protect the United
States and its citizens, and to help its allies and other
cooperating nations protect their nations and their citizens, from
such further terrorist attacks depends in significant part upon
using the United States Armed Forces to identify terrorists and
those who support them, to disrupt their activities, and to
eliminate their ability to conduct or support such attacks.
(e) To protect the United States and its citizens, and for the
effective conduct of military operations and prevention of
terrorist attacks, it is necessary for individuals subject to this
order pursuant to section 2 hereof to be detained, and, when tried,
to be tried for violations of the laws of war and other applicable
laws by military tribunals.
(f) Given the danger to the safety of the United States and the
nature of international terrorism, and to the extent provided by
and under this order, I find consistent with section 836 of title
10, United States Code, that it is not practicable to apply in
military commissions under this order the principles of law and the
rules of evidence generally recognized in the trial of criminal
cases in the United States district courts.
(g) Having fully considered the magnitude of the potential
deaths,
injuries, and property destruction that would result from potential
acts of terrorism against the United States, and the probability
that such acts will occur, I have determined that an extraordinary
emergency exists for national defense purposes, that this emergency
constitutes an urgent and compelling govern-ment interest, and that
issuance of this order is necessary to meet the
emergency.
Sec. 2. Definition and Policy.
(a) The term "individual subject to this order" shall mean any
individual who is not a United States citizen with respect to whom
I determine from time to time in writing that:
(1) there is reason to believe that such individual, at the
relevant times,
(i) is or was a member of the organization known as al Qaida;
(ii) has engaged in, aided or abetted, or conspired to commit,
acts of international terrorism, or acts in preparation therefor,
that have caused, threaten to cause, or have as their aim
to cause, injury to or adverse effects on the United
States, its citizens, national security, foreign policy,
or economy; or
(iii) has knowingly harbored one or more individuals described
in subparagraphs (i) or (ii) of subsection 2(a)(1) of
this order; and
(2) it is in the interest of the United States that such
individual be subject to this order.
(b) It is the policy of the United States that the Secretary of
Defense shall take all necessary measures to ensure that any
individual subject to this order is detained in accordance with
section 3, and, if the individual is to be tried, that such
individual is tried only in accordance with section 4.
(c) It is further the policy of the United States that any
individual subject to this order who is not already under the
control of the Secretary of Defense but who is under the control of
any other officer or agent of the United States or any State shall,
upon delivery of a copy of such written determination to such
officer or agent, forthwith be placed under the control of the
Secretary of Defense.
Sec. 3. Detention Authority of the Secretary of Defense. Any
individual subject to this order shall be --

and medical treatment;
(d) allowed the free exercise of religion consistent with the
requirements of such detention; and

(b) As a military function and in light of the findings in

(c) Orders and regulations issued under subsection (b) of this
section shall include, but not be limited to, rules for the conduct
of the proceedings of military commissions, including pretrial,
trial, and post-trial procedures, modes of proof, issuance of

provide for --
(1) military commissions to sit at any time and any place,
consistent with such guidance regarding time and place as the
Secretary of Defense may provide;
(2) a full and fair trial, with the military commission sitting
as the triers of both fact and law;
(3) admission of such evidence as would, in the opinion of the
presiding officer of the military commission (or instead, if any
other member of the commission so requests at the time the
presiding officer renders that opinion, the opinion of the
commission rendered at that time by a majority of the commission),
have probative value to a reasonable person;
(4) in a manner consistent with the protection of information
classified or classifiable under Executive Order 12958 of April 17,
1995, as amended, or any successor Executive Order, protected by
statute or rule from unauthorized disclosure, or otherwise
protected by law, (A) the handling of, admission into evidence of,

the Secretary of Defense if so designated by me for that
purpose.
Sec. 5. Obligation of Other Agencies to Assist the Secretary of
Defense.
