| |
− |
| |
− | Al Taibi denied any relationship with al Qaeda.
| |
− |
| |
− | He acknowledged traveling to Afghanistan for training - religious training.
| |
− |
| |
− | He was sure that the name of the person who participate in Mujahidin training was not his.
| |
− |
| |
− | He has no aliases, so no aliases of his could be found in safehouses, or on captured hard drives, because he didn’t have any aliases.
| |
− |
| |
− | He said that as the only son in his family he was exempt from being conscripted into a jihad, and he had an official document, a [[hathwa]], confirming this.
| |
− |
| |
− | Subsequently the [[United States Department of Defense|Department of Defense]] instituted the [[Combatant Status Review Tribunal]]s. The Tribunals, however, were not authorized to determine whether the captives were ''lawful combatants'' -- rather they were merely empowered to make a recommendation as to whether the captive had previously been correctly determined to match the Bush administration's definition of an [[enemy combatant]].
