elaine cassel : the lynne stewart verdict; stretching the definition of "terrorism" to new limits.



the u.s. has truly become the embodiment of all evil. the government there has enacted legislation whose purpose is to prevent attorneys from properly representing their clients in 'terrorism' cases. lynne stewart, a court-appointed attorney for a man charged with terrorism, has herself been found guilty of terrorism for doing her best for her client.



attorneys throughout the u.s. should all strike until this obscene legislation is repealed and until lynne stewart is released and paid substantial damages for her appalling treatment.



nothing else will do.



but you and i know that the craven bastards will do nothing of the sort, and they'll let her rot in prison rather than risk their own cushy jobs.
