The Obama administration warned Monday that a judgeƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s ruling last week blocking a statute authorizing the indefinite detention of terrorism suspects has jeopardized its ability to continue detaining certain prisoners captured during the war in Afghanistan.
In an emergency appeal of the ruling, the government asserted that United States District Court Judge Katherine B. Forrest went beyond enjoining the statute ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬‚ enacted last year as part of the National Defense Authorization Act ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢¢”š¬‚ and potentially curtailed detention powers it has been exercising for years under its interpretation of the authorization to use military force against the perpetrators of the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
Judge ForrestƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ¢-¾‚¢s order ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ…-threatens irreparable harm to national security and the public interest by injecting added burdens and dangerous confusion into the conduct of military operations abroad during an active armed conflict,ƒÆ’‚¢ƒ¢-¡‚¬ƒ”š‚ the government wrote in a 38-page filing with the federal appeals court in New York
